Thanks for the reply. That makes sense...I just thught that someone might know off hand.

Bromley Tyres in Warrington are good for price and service...they do have a website, and I believe there might be a Briskoda discount there, but check the discount section... :)

No idea on the tints...

Thanks I'll try that.

what year 200?

try www.moto-build.com for any rover info, my uncle has used them alot for tuning his 216 (still beated him down the pod in my standard vrs :P)

When I used to live in Manchester, Dave Sheldon Tyres were very good.

Their number is 0161-228 2753.

They even have a website: http://www.davesheldontyres.co.uk

It's been at least three years since I've used them, so I can't provide a more recent recommendation.

Hope this helps,

Bagpuss.

Thanks a lot mate... I am going to order the Goodyear Eagle Ventura's I think...or maybe the Vredestein Hi-Trac what do you guys think. I had the Goodyears on 15" wheel a few years ago and grip was excellent. However, AUTO EXPRESS did a 14" Tyre test and really rated the Vredestein Hi-Trac. I think I am more inclined towards the Goodyears.

Personally i use RossVale tyres in Ramsbottom, its local for me, its a family owned business and i always take my car to them. they get really good prices for budget tyres and middle road tyres, but are also happy to fit, balance and generally swap around tyres ive brought from mytyres.

Scoobynet also rate selecta tyres in bredbury very highly. :)

Hello,

Got rid of the Legacy...gutted.

Saving up for Octavia...I mean house (Wife may find out).

:rofl: wait 'til you come to have it modified...just been there and navigated my way around that little problem yesterday!!! :D

"Nah...didn't really do that much to it luv!" :rolleyes:

Just hope she doesn't open my credit card statement by accident next month or it'll be :hbomb: !!!

Hey also Aaquil...some strange names lately.... I had mine done through a guy from Bolton, but had to go through my local 'fitting agent'

They refused to give me his number as they get a cut of his profits for any work they give him...LOTS!

I can either give you the number of my local 'robbers', sorry..fitting agents, or if you like I'll see if I can get his number the next time I see him, every week normally. He is VERY busy though because his work is 100%.
