Oh BTW the price for my tyres above is what my family gets as a fleet price as we have six vehicles to buy tyres for, so therefore not reflective of retail prices.

need to remind you guys, you will NEVER get the best price possible by finding a generic quote on the internet. Go to a store, show them you know ure stuff, show them you are genuinly interested in purchasing a set of tyres, and then you will the best quote possible.
any advice/recommendation for 235/40R18 tyres?
looking for average daily use, good grip in wet n dry and not too noisy.
my budget is about 250-280.
if there are any places where you can recommend i can get them cheap, pls let me know too. ;)
thanks!!
what do people reccommend in the 14 inch range ?
185/195 x 60 x 14 :)
195/60R14 Bridgestone GII or GIII's
Not much else out there that is not designed for Mum's Shopping Car(t)

On another note, I'm looking for new tyres for my civic - 205/40/17.
Rung around a few places, got quoted so far (fitted + balanced):
- Kingstar @ $155 ea
- Hankook K104 @ $200ea
- Dunlop SP Sport Max @ $240ea
- Yokohama A Drive @ $249ea
- Yokohama AR01RF @ $257ea
- Fulda Excelero @ $220 ea
- Goodyear Revspec @ $273ea
- Bridgestone G3 @ $278ea
- Maxxis MAV1 @ $182ea
- Pirrelli Dragon @ $299ea
I'm leaning towards the Fuldas, but am also considering the Goodyear Revspec, Pirrelli Dragons and Yokohamas.
Anybody got any experience with any of these? What are they like on road noise, wet/dry performance, grip, mileage, etc??
What's the different between Yokohama A drive and A drive R1? Aren't they the same?
I'm about to try it out :D, it's relatively new as well so you can't really get the feedback from it.
If you want Hankook , get K105 is a replacement for K104 :D It's a much better tyres
Anyone used Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3 ?
comments?
Except the Hankook K105 is not available in 205/40R17 but K107 has it in a 195/40R17!
Also, Hankook 105 is not the replacement for the 104, they are designed at different markets.
This really depends on what your aftering, K105 is designed for low noise and comfort driving e.g. sedans and luxuary cars. K104 is designed for those who demands performance over comfort so it focus on only aspects of higher traction, grip and responsiveness. so dont get confused with the pattern/model name.Quote:
