I need 4 new tyres

Looking at a set of Toyo Proxes street terrian tyres, cost £120 each. I thought that was a good price for what seems to be a quality tyre.

4 new tyres

Hi Dave,

I put 4 new tyres on the Beast 2 weeks ago - It was £900 all in.

I had a flat on back 15 mins before leaving for Airport; in going away for 6 days abroad. The other back tyre had a slight outer split which was only going to get worse.

And the front 2 had travelled 23k miles and only had 2 months life. The Weather has been appalling, and I braked hard 2/3 times since with a full load. - That's when you're glad you changed the tyres. Once on the A1, and couple of times in Scotland near Berwick.

Your life is more important than a few quid in a situation like this.

Fenham of Fenham.

255/50/19's £170 + Vat = almost £200 on Tuesday..Delivery would have been extra and was advised to contact "Dave" who is on the Disco3 Forum to arrange...I guess your size is cheaper????

By the way I'm not blaming AJS altogether...they are probably being hit by their wholesaler and have no choice but to pass it on. However its still greed whoever you want to blame!! Evil or Very Mad Evil or Very Mad

Hi, Can anyone tell me if they have Pirelli Scorpion Zero Asimmetrico tyres on their RRS and if they're any good and decent? Looking to get a set of winter or all season tyres that would work in this weather too.
