    Guys and Gals, i have to get 2 new tyres for my car and got quoted €85 balanced and fitted per tyre for 225x45x17 Infinity Branded.....

    What im wondering is, are these tyres any good, any one have them on their car?? and is €85 a good/bad price (www.eiretyres.com are selling them for €70 each but then id have to pay some one to balance and fit them)

    Any feedback is appreciated.....

    I had them in my Bravo.
    I must say - no matter what price they are - don't buy them.
    As on some Irish country roads with very sharp tarmac (lot's of chippings) every tyre is good, so on nice flat surface, they provide very little grip while wet.

    After them I got a set of Debica Furio (Polish brand) for about the same price, and difference is huge. Now my car listens to me (when I break, car slows down, when I turn steering wheels, it turns), what I can't say was the case before on Infinity.

    much better tyre, you'll get them delivered for about €150 and should be able to get them fitted for €30. I had these tyres on my last car and the where very good.

    Try having a look through this thread. Done a good bit of looking around and you can get Bridgestones or Michelins for a few quid more.

    AFAIK, they are made by Conti

    have them on a set of 206 alloys im selling. had no problems with them but then again a 1.9d 206 aint going to rip them to pieces with power or anything!!
    i have hankook evo v12s http://camskill.co.uk/products.php?plid=m54b0s16p15216 in 225-45-17 on my own car and find them great in the wet and dry.. plus i got about 25k miles of hard driving out of my last set! these are not a bad tyre either. had them on a 1.4 leon and IIRC they held the road well. they would be the cheapest tyre i would put on my car.
    these are the cheapest tyres in your size camskill stock http://camskill.co.uk/products.php?plid=m54b0s16p49544 but i would try avoid them at all costs.. ps what car are they going on?

    just had two infinity tyres removed from the car, Noticed the car was vibrating and peculiar noise from the car, I thought at first it was a wheel bearing but it was the tyres something called " toe & heel" this is where the tyre wears uneven causing the vibration and noise, dont buy them, they were cheap at 65 euros each for 235's but pure rubbish, common problem with this make apparently, Only did about 10k :(
