Need tyres.. recommendations

[age7875]

I had a massive screw stuck in my ContiSportContact 3s and to my amazement and also the tyre repair's amazement they self sealed perfectly. Absolutely no issues.

I was cynical and took the tyre in to be inspected but it was in great shape.

If you go with Kumho's, try and contact a motorsport provider for cheaper prices.

I am getting them when my car arrives and i am going through option1garage (drift workshop) as they can get them for $210 a corner.

I just dropped the car off for 4 ea KU31's at $155 fitted and balanced per corner. Not a bad price IMO and at less than 1/2 price of the OEM tyres worth a try given the good reviews I have read...

Got the car back and very happy - $680 for 4 tyres and a 4 wheel alignment. A courtesy 10K rotate and balance thrown it too.

So they courteously "threw in" a rotation of 4 brand new tyres? God love em. Oh and they balanced 4 brand new tyres too? WOW! Your lucky day! lol

Sorry, I couldn't help but laugh at that....

Hey RD,

Where did you get them done?

Cheers,

I've read it as richdave takes it back in 10K and they will do a rotate and balance for free.

Ah OK... That makes more sense.

And just to be clear, I wasn't having a go at anyone except maybe a bit of a dig at the tyre place... I just thought it was funny (the way I initially interpreted it).

I don't get the joke...

Thanks Pana for explaining it to Rocket36... I apparently didnt do so well...

yeah they gave me a FREE tyre check, rotate and balance after 10K so that's when I'd usually PAY to have the same done so it is a good freebie I reckon.
