Smile Tyres

V60 R Design - has not got the smoothest ride however just fitted Michelin Cross Climiates on the 18 inch wheels - what a difference.

I think these are must if you think the R Design drive is just a bit harsh on standard tyres

Just putting it out there

I like the sound of this!

I've ordered my 18" Cross Climates for my XC60, they are getting fitted next Saturday.

I looked at just about every retailer! ATS Euromaster were the cheapest....

There is a £50 discount offer from Michelin (if you buy 4 tyres), plus at ATS if you opt to have them fitted on a Saturday they give you another 10% off. The Michelin offer also includes an Amazon Echo (£89?) as well.

All in, I'm paying £462 and the Echo.

Cheaper on Saturday? £115 a corner seems a bargain

£140 a tyre from an independent. It’s cheaper than black circle but not ATS

5% cashback going via quidco is also available, so if it comes off £110/tyre.
