If they feel ok, I guess they are ok! Thanks.got them on mine, good tyres (i think) even in the snow and ice had no issues with them. done about 9k on the set thats on the car now, and still got plenty of wear left in them. price sounds rite aswell. the garage where i get mine fittted told me £275 for front and £305 for rear.
I havent been out looking for the best price yet, that was just the price from the first place I tried. It was blackcircles delivered only price. Seemed ok to me. The Dunlops were about £480 each.going to need a set myself soon,nearly 4000 miles and the outer edges on the front and rears look below minimum depth, i suspect i have had them under inflated. the price sounds reasonable, are the tyres being imported or was that the price from a local garage.......
Anyone tried these ?
Bridgestone RE070 run flats about £304 fronts and £334 for rears.
Sound ok?
I was quoted 2.5k for Dunlops fitted and 700 for front pads with only 6k miles on the clock.i wont be critical of taking the import route, anything must be cheaper than giving HPC over 2 grand to supply and fit a set of tyres.
Was the car set up at a HPC and if so which one?I've got Bridgestones on my R35 which have lasted 5,500 miles and have worn on the inside edge.Great grip in the dry but in the wet wether we have had lately i've had some interesting "moments" . Nissan quoted £2,440 for replacement dunlops but got these for £1200 from autofit bridgwater somerset 01278 439287. Please be sure to get your wheels aligned properly on a hunter machine and be extremely fussy about the results make sure you are there when they do it and don't accept anything bit perfection.Your tyres will last longer and the car will drive better and don't forget to make sure you get the everyday set up not track.Ive had various 4 wheel drive cars of different makes and on average have got 15000 miles per set and never had to worry about wheel alignment or car weight. I'm not sure but IMO there is a problem with tyres on this car. There have been too many people posting sub 7000 miles for tyres without track use or extreme driving of any kind. I can only come up with inaccurate wheel alignment by dealerships or maybe i'm a crap driver!
Please put me right so I can save my tyres!
Also how many other owners have had soft paint problems.I have lost count of the chips on my car.I reckon if a sparrow landed on it there would be a chip!Can't be right and i'v never had this problem with paint on any other car even the ones i've sprayed myself!
I see we have nearly 200 members on here now so that should give us a bit of clout
Perfect Touch are supplying them (saw them on Sat). They have a hunter alignment machine and wasn't paying attention on the tyre put on machine but i think it might be hunter as wellrobbie J, are your tyres via the import route or are perfect touch supplying and fitting them?, the price sounds very good......
I am in Scotland, so I am interested in what constitutes a Nissan Approved Tyre Machine, do you have any details?
