Rim protection 18" Gemini vrs alloys

Featured Replies

Hi all

I need to get new tyres for my front wheels. I currently have Michelin PS4s on 18" Gemini alloys. My other half has a bad habit of scraping kerbs with the front wheel. I'm looking for a tyre with decent rim protection. Anyone got any recommendations?

Just look on kwikfit, they are very clear which have rim protection when buying. I bought continentals for the 1.8Tsi LK I acquired from father as that was what was on it.

After fitting these were chunky around rim offering protection and was clear when trying to buy them which ones are protected (not mentioned below for some reason though), so just use the websites.

2 x Continental SportContact 7 at £95.50
Tyre Size 225/40 18Y
EU Tyre Label Info -
Vehicle Type C1, Fuel Efficiency C, Wet Grip A, Noise Rating B-72dB
Load Index: 92
