General tire help for my 1.2

[Pete Nov]

I got quoted £50 for a new front tire, is this about right. (Size is 185/55/15)

Im not that clued up on tires so any help would be much appreciated it. Also would it be better to buy in pairs or what ?

This is for my 1.2 btw. Thanks!

Thanks anyway

Seems cheapish yeh. What brand is it?

Seems a little on the expensive side if it's a budget...

EDIT: That one AliBailey posted up is a steal!

I'll mind that link next time I'm looking for tyres!

I paid £49 Fitted for a budget tyre.

The ones AliBailey posted up are cheap as chips! I'd snap those up if i needed new ones all round.

Werent told of a brand but, i rang up a place in Bedford.

A budget was £42 and a mid range was £48.

Is there a lot of difference between budget and mid range, as im thinking to go for mid range.


Cheers

i pay £49 fitted for 195/50/15 Exalto PE2's or Eagle F1's which is probably the best road tyres you could put on them for all round use.

get 195's not 185's you pay much more for 185s because its a less common size but 195's fit no problem, and are wider so more grip!
