Best Budget Tyres?

iluvmylexus

economy brand tyres are normally a waste of money ,
most of the manufacturers have budget versions of their best sellers
one example is cooper, i have used these and they are excellent value
talk to an independant tyre shop and they will be able to help, i would stay well away from kwikfit (not that cheap anyway)

A friend of mine into his performance cars told me he always uses federals, if there good enough for his cars there good enough for my 2.0 dti, iv run about 1000 miles on a front set and they are amazingly grippy, best of all there only £35 each

Although if you look on Kleber's website they have their own long illustrious history. I guewss michelin has bought them so they can control the market and put up their own prices.

Here's a question, why's it so hard to find any cashback/voucher sites that have anything for tyres, driving lessons, etc...I've only just got info from myvouchercodes.co.uk or greasypalm (can't remember which) for blackcircles website...anybody have/seen anything? I've just found a promo with BSM from looking at the offer in TescoClubcard Deals and then looking at the BSM website direct...they're offering 5 lessons for £75 on their website and Tesco offers £46.50 in vouchers for a 4 lesson pack; don't suppose they'd let you use both??lol

I have a Mondeo TDCi Estate, fantastic car which I really enjoy driving along the lanes of Cornwall (although I avoid like a plague the local Ford dealer based in Wadebridge.

I researched the best tyres to buy (on a budget). I'd seen too many 'cheap' tyres wear too fast and not handle at all well.

Good tyre review here

(go to 'home' and start again for other cars)

So the best tyre for the Mondeo seems to be the Uniroyal Rainexpert2 (bearing in mind how it's always raining in Cornwall)

Black circles quotes £100.33 fitted per tyre inc.
MYTYRES quoted £79.20 fitted per tyre inc.

BEST BUY TYRES £69.00 fitted per tyre inc.

Better still, not fitted price is only £58 (plus £10 postage for up to 4 tyres (possibly more). My local tyre centre will fit and balance a tyre for £5.00 so I feel I'm getting the best tyres for my car for £65.50 per corner (ordered 4), which is what many seem to pay for non-descript 'budget' tyres!

I'll let you know how they feel on the car!
