P-zero's will last you around 4000 miles - avoid at all costs
I have had Toyo Proxies on mine, not that convinced. I found Yokahama A539's to be good right until metal is showing in all weather and you would get more miles than a pirreli. But one of the best all round value tyres for me is SIMEX, they do gorgeous patterns and have that big overhang for your rim protector -
Give my mate a call, this is his family business and tell him Andrew Murphy told you to ring, his name is Oliver Green:

He will send tyres to your door and may save you a couple of quid

Cheeky
I just drive them to a fraction of wheelspin most of the time, but I never hang about apart from on speed humps.

But seriously, SAM needs some new boots and could really do with finding out where and how much these Vredestien sportrac or ultrac 2's are

Just treated myself to a pair of Ultracs - 215/45/R17's - Very impressive. £100 a corner though - but well worth it and the tread pattern can only be described as sexy!

Quick Fit Always used to sell Vredestien as their own branded Tyre. I always had the Snowsports on my Patrol. Brilliant Tyre,Originally Posted by Bracer
I've just put Goodyear Eagles on mine and they transformed the handling of the car far more than I thought possible, but they cost a fortune. They look like they are wearing better than the P6000's, but hay, what wouldn't.
Where are my pipe and slippers Nope not behind here
They're new Tartant zippups too

Had to stick with my T5 on a budget theme so went for the kumhos at £57.50 a corner..... just two corners of course, rotated the other two get another 3k from those no worries!
used the saved money to do the wheel bearing / air leak. All running A1

I cant really afford £100 each so might end up going for another pair of what I've got depending on the price
