Well got them fitted yesterday....only took 4 days for the tyres to arrive at the fitters....not bad at all as they came from abroad. Mytyres supply the tracking number so I could plan when to get to the fitters.
I bought a full set of Yokohama AVS dB 205/65 R15 99V RF , Profile V550.
They got my vote after reading several tyre tests on 205/65 R15 V rated tyres...I need to get out more!!!!
One of the highest scoring tyres and cheaper and better rated than the Firestones that were recommended for a strong sidewall. The Yokos have a reinforced side wall that stands slightly proud so offers some degree of protection against kurbing.
Only done a hand full of miles but the feel is good, next to no road noise (the AVS db is specially designed to minimise noise)
I was concerned about Yoko's as they are normally a soft sports biased tyre but these are designed to give high mileage.
So fingers crossed that my £48 yokos do what the label says
