I had a work mate who was always complaining that he had yet another puncture. It never occurred to him that having Chinese tyres at around £30 a time could have been why.

Another good tip to save money is when your track rod ends get play just knock the back in with a ball pain hammer to tighten them up ...EPLS

Yes but all those apply when you are selling the vehicle ..... Always listen to old people or when they die you will live on in ignorance.

The first thing you look at when buying any car is the tyre brand, as for service history many a time its found to be a rubber stamp from a so say independant ,when cheap tyres fitted.

If I was looking at two vehicles and one had cheap ditch finder tyres, I'd be drawn to the one with premium tyres. Someone that scrimps on tyres more likely scrimps on important maintenance, frankly. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders

I see Tesco's have a special offer on this weekend, at the cheese counter for wheel bearings and brake pads.

Cheers all, ended up going with the Pirellis from Halfords. They had some issues getting the wheels off, took 2 hours! Made me grin, I did one of them in a petrol station forecourt with a crap wheel brace. Happy so, far, these have been great in standing water, and I could spread the cost over 12 months. |
