    Quite simply because that as night follows day tyres wear out, I do nigh on 30k a year nowadays so the Sava tyres won't last forever.

    Also the simple fact is my car takes 205/55/16 which is one of the most common sizes of tyres when it comes to family cars or small mpv's such as Scenic or C-Max.

    You are aware that 20% off a set of four Michelins at my local Costco is nearly £70, or basically four Michelin Primacy HP's for the price of cheapies, not womens logic atall, but a very sensible idea since these Costco offers only come once a year these days.

    So you'll buy your next car based on bargain tyres you already own???

    No offence but you're not in the best of financial positions are you and yet you blame it on your wife.

    They won't fit the Jag you asked about.

    You have given yourself away with your previous ID's again Woody, you need to stop referring back to threads from several months ago, long before you posted in this name.

    And your pathetic attempts at being forum !!!!!! just show you up to be the forum fool.

    I will sell my car whenever I want, I will buy tyres when I want, then do with them what I want and at whatever time I decide to do so.

    What exactly has my financial position got to do with you?

    Now go off to bed and choke the chicken.

    And after some more research, you know that thing that adults do, I have decided that the Jag XF is too expensive to run.

    But you wouldn't know that as what I do and what I decide has absolutely nothing to do with you.

    Now you can get back to what you were up to, it won't make you blind so you carry on as normal, soon enough you will get a "significant other" to assist with such things.




    Actually, no, you probably won't......................

    If the Michelins truly are that cheap they can always go on ebay if unused...

    At around £67 a corner when Kwik Fit wants over £100 and Elite want just under £90 they are a bargain worth putting to one side in the garage.

    Sometimes you do indeed have to spend money to save it, I personally think this is one of those times.

    Though Costco have yet to send me this months offers, need to pop in and confirm that they have the offer on and when it runs till, I think mikey said it was till the beginning of July.

    At £67 a corner the only thing stopping me from heading up to Gateshead myself is the lack of a Costco card :(
