If you've done 28k on your original set I would suggest you stick with the same make/tyre - they suit your style of driving. 2005 Zambezi TDV6 - Gone but not forgotten

You've done well to do 28k on one set of tyres, Nigel... I went through 2 sets in 26k! Goes to show what you can achieve when you are nice to your car |

An update. I used a web shop called tyre-shopper.co.uk. Good prices and range. Turns out they are part of National Tyres. Got these ones - http://www.conti-online.com/generator/www/...ct_en.html Paid £756 for 4 fully fitted. They've since given me a good price on front pads. There is about 2mm left on the front ones. £70 fitted for the front 4. The brakes have got a 60/40 split, and at my 30,000 miles that's the front ones going. Any one had similar milage replacements. I suppose it's a kind of poll. |

You should have bought a new set on ebay for about £550 - you get a spare set of wheels free. 2005 Zambezi TDV6 - Gone but not forgotten

Standard 19 inch wheels. Ebay always have full sets of 19's for sale because of upgrades, it's the cheapest way to replace your tyres. 2005 Zambezi TDV6 - Gone but not forgotten
