Hi,

I need 2 new tyres for my 03 Octavia vRS. I currently have Dunlops (205/50R17). I need both front tyres changing.

Protyre in Enfield - highly recommend them

Cheers TaviaRS, just rung them and they range from

Kumho 712 has good reviews on here. Oh and swap to 225/45 and the price will come down, but you keep the same rolling radius

Thanks for that. What's the benefits/drawbacks with a 225/45? Does it make a difference if I have the 205/50s on the back?

Also just checked out mytyres.co.uk, seem quite reasonable pricewise, but have to have the tyres fitted by a garage obviously. Don't know how friendly they'd be if I didn't buy the tyres from them :eek:

Some are OK, mytyres will recomend a fitting place near you on their site - most will charge

Oh and mixing tyres on different axles is fine

Thanks once again TaviaRS

Spoke to Protyres again! Quoted me

Thats cheaper than the mytyres ones (when you add in valves and balancing and disposal of the old tyres). Excellent
