Tyres
I am using Falken Euroall 205/55R16 on my 1997 V90. No probs after 2 years and they are all season tyres which I got on line from mytyres.co.uk. Good price, too, at under £60 each, but might have gone up a bit by now!

I had 225/45/17 Avon ZV7s on a S60 T5 for around 20K last year - still had loads of life in them when I sold it - great tyre in all weathers.

F**k fu**itty f**k f**ck..
No sign of my tyres, no response from shop, I checked them- quite a number of complaints... Just rang them, with my usual "I record it as well" (look up joke of the day thread in lounge), I was told that DESPATCH time will be 23rd-27th of may. As opposd to 17th-18th DELIVERY on thewebsite. Cancelled order.. Now i wonder do i have money frozen or not.. Waiting for confirmation. Under pressure of me recording, tgeyve promised to cancel and refund today. Avoid bl**dy "giga tyres" End of rant, off to find some rubbers. Gotta have them fitted within one week.. Just got to.

Always use them. EDIT: Just my 2 cents, get the Uniroyals - They're the best all round you can get for the money, if you've got more cash to splash get Michelin Pilot Sport 4's.

Funny thing: i was just looking at their website
And came back here to see your post. Yes, I think I'll order Uniroyal's from them (zv7 out of stock) But first I need to confirm with these German w**rs thatctheyve made a full refund.. Thanks anyways! Back to work.. Edit: Bugger it.. Germans are on PayPal pay after delivery. I'll get them. Just ordered from Camskill. 2 Uniroyal's on the way..

Have always used either Tyre Shopper or Black Circles. Fitted at whatever is the nearest depot and usually within a couple of days.
One or other of these are the cheapest and I've never seen them beaten on price.

For now, Camskill has beaten eBay pricewise. And it will be difficult NOT to beat eBay on delivery time.. Looks like I may have them Friday/Saturday.. Fitter at standby
