summer tires 18"

[D3m0]

Hi,

 

I wanted to buy Michelin PS4, however they are not sold in recommended size 235/45r18. Possibilities are 235/40 or 245/45. According to online calculators 245/45 shall be ok? Anyone tried it?

 

Or maybe go with Continental Premium Contact 6 in recommended size?

235/45r18 -    26.3"    0%

245/45r18 -    26.7"    +1.5% in diameter, OK

235/40r18 -    25.4"    -3.4%, NOK

I was looking at www.eiretyres.com,  and they are also listed on the UK version of this site www.mytyres.co.uk, which are all run as country specific sites, by delticom. Price is pretty steep on the UK site at £289.30 per tyre , compared to €225.20 on the Irish site.

I have used them many times and they are normally the cheapest. Black Circles, ASDA and Oponeo occasionally have a cheaper price, but Tyre Leader is quite proactive and normally price adjust within a day or two. They use DPD for deliveries… the proper red vans and not the blue (formerly Interlink Express) DPD local service.
 

In saying that, Costco are in bed with Michelin and are hard to beat when they have their £50 or 20% off when you buy 4 deals on… free fitting too.
