……Mondeo ST TDCi. I didn't like the quote for £800 from Ford!

Usual mileage 20k/year mainly motorway weekdays, or town with family weekends. I don't drive fast or hard, and rate wear, safety in the wet, low noise/economy as priorities. Budget around £450-550 for the four.

Am considering Hankooks at £510. Any comments? I don't want to consider budgets, as the ones on there at the moment grip like teflon, despite lasting 20k.

Conti SportContact 3s. £130 a tyre from Event mobile fitters (approx) I do drive hard and fast.

Bu66er. Event don't cover Cardiff.

Try another mobile fitter then… cheaper as they save on overheads.

Falken ZE912 come in quite well priced and are a very good mid range tyre with good reviews.

Been on my mrs bus for over 2 years and still faultless.

Size??

As an approx size….

Don't know Mondeo's tyre size sorry.

Find somewhere selling uniroyal rainsports or rainexperts – brilliant tyres and usually around 40-50 quid a corner. As good if not better than the sport contacts I had on and they were £120 a corner.

Size is 225/40 ZR18 Extra-Load

Ah ridiculous size tyres, they're going to be £130 a corner + fitting then, even for half-decent tyres.

coffeeking, indeed a ridiculous size – not through choice. Ever tried driving over potholes with them? No wonder my back is knackered.

Black circles,

Pirelli P Zero Nero 111 each fitted, at a local centre of your choice, I know quite a few people who have these and really like them, price is not to bad for what you get. lots of good reviews in black circles too.

Cheers
