I imagine if I was keeping the car for a while then I would would get it painted. Will look nicer while you own it and will help you sell it on when you come to sell it, fair enough you probably wont get back the money it cost.
I can offer them for £84.99 delivered per tyre but he quoted fitted and most places usually charge anywhere between £12 and £15 a wheel for fitting which would take them over the price he has quoted.
I would be happy to get them price matched for him though if he can find them cheaper else where.
I found the wear on Pilot sports much quicker than Pzeros.
Pzeros for me everytime.
Not worth the extra cost in my opinion.
How quick did your Pirellis wear down? I saw 12-13k out my front pair and that was giving them plenty of abuse. And the rears had done over 20k and only worn down...
Mine was a bit intermittent when mine was bringing up that fault code.
Would come back on when sitting at the same revs for a period of time or certain fuel would bring the code up.
For what it costs I just changed it and been fine ever since.
Yeah true. I always run top of range but I work in tyre trade.
But minimum I would fit anyway is mid range such as Falken/kumho/Avon etc.
Same goes for my girlfriends car etc.
Suppose some people don't care about things like that and spend their money on other personal items instead.
Flol!
We get people fitting just 2 on the front and think that will be ok, then they return a week later because they've had a scary moment and get them all round.
Or A brand new car with a flat tyre that needs replaced running good continentals and they fit 1 nankang lol.
Well I don't like to skimp on my cars so I don't see why I should skimp on tyres especially as usually the difference between a s**t budget tyre and a good midrange tyre is only £10 a corner?
No different from buying the shittest oil and other parts for my car.
People can fit what ever they...
Can easily pick one up second hand for about £10.
It's so you can go the shops and still race super cars in da twiztiez and arrive with your shopping intact still in the bags lol.
Still can't make my mind up, think its one to definitely see in the flesh.
In some photos I like it and in others I don't. The first shop from a distance it looks horrible, but the close up shot I really like it.
Not sure on the gloss black interior bits either, I like how its trying to be...
Not sure mpg wise, trip always seems to read between 32-35.
Never returns less than 320-350 to a tank of BP Ultimate or V power and thats driving it how ever I like which is usually not economical.
Other than the suspension with the trophy I can't think of much else.
I have done 23k+ in my 182 since May and it will keep on climbing constantly and so for its cost me nothing but tyres and fuel.
Epic little car, so cheap to run for what they are.
If you afford to, replace all 4.
Or if you really have to, put the s**t ones on the front and the michelins on the back.
If you do replace all 4 though, go with Pzero Neros ;)
