Reccommendations for good tyres please!!

Swampy · 22-10-2009, 11:45

Hi all,

I am looking to get a new set of tyres for my car. I'm slipping a bit with them at the moment.

My car is a BMW 318i 2002. Stock wheels. Would any of you have any recommendations for a good mid price tyre?

Thanks,

S.

i fitted kUmho's to an e90 320d es. made a great job of the back of her, very grippy and keenly priced in strabane

I've always bought Firestones or Pirellis. Lots of feedback and stop well in the wet. Best tyre I ever drove on were Michelins but they cost a bomb. Hankooks should be made illegal , without doubt the worst tyres I've ever driven on ( except for Triangle, dont start me ). Useless in the dry and down right dangerous in the wet. There must be no rain at all in Korea. Falkens used to be a semi budget brand that out performed their price. Out of the tyre game a while now so dont really know if they're still a little cheaper.

Heading up to Newry on wednesday to the dentist. I Saw that kwik-fit have Pirelli p6000's for £68.

Anyone know if thats a decent price?
