Hi Guy's, It's getting near the time when I need to think about buying a new set of shoes for my 320i. I'm not after anything very fancy as I don't abuse the car too much - but I don't want to end up in a ditch after I encounter my first roundabout! I'm prob after a good average ability and priced set
at 235/40/r17
Just wondered if anyone had any suggestions?
or
could you recommend a good website that you've had dealings with and received a good standard of service. (I'm still wary about Internet dealings of high value with faceless company's)


Thanks for any advice given.
Funk

BFGoodrich g-Force Sport. Not too pricey, perform well, don't complain a lot. I liked them.

BTW, the correct size for you is a 235/45/17. ;)

Yeah thats what I've been reading, and will be replacing with. I've already got a set of 235/40/17 fitted. Don't know why the previous owner would drop the size. I'll be buying the new ones in pairs so I suppose the period when they won't match won't be that long, and won't matter too much.

Any other brand's you guys will recommend?

michillin pilot preceda was pretty nice when i had them... kinda experimenting with tyres at the moment to see which is good but will be while before i put on a new set since the current ones are still new-ish
