Tyres - what have you got on your car ?
My Astra will soon be needing a couple of tyres, and at 235 45 r18 size they won't be cheap.
I don't like to use cheap tyres, they are often dangerous in the wet, but on the other hand I don't much fancy paying £150 a tyre for premium tyres either.
What kind of tyres are you using and what do you think of them...?

Tyres
Hi guys, I will soon need to change my tyres on my GTC Biturbo. The size is 245/40/20. Any recommendations for a mid-range summer tyre that won't break the bank?

Tyres-225/45/17 instead of 225/50/17 ???
Hi all,

I need to change my tyres and thinking of whacking on some winters over the next few months.

Thing is, the 225/50/17 seems such an expensive size. 
Can I change it to 225/45/17..?

If so, any impact to the car, drivability, stability, etc?

It's a 2011, 2.0 Diesel 5 door.

Thanks

Winter Tyres and Chris Knott
Winter Tyres and Chris Knott

Hi, I'm often asked on club forums (and Facebook groups) about switching to winter wheels/tyres and whether an insurer will charge extra if you do.

As it's getting to that time of year again I thought I'd just reassure any Chris Knott clients that the insurers we use don't usually charge for this. However, if you are thinking of swapping your wheels we do have to log when you make the switch and then again when you go back to normal - so please let us kn

19” Sri wheel with tyres
Just recieved my car yesterday but want to down size my 19” to 18”

What would they be worth?

They have some minor rim marks and scuffs but nothing excessive. Tyres are very good treads.

Just looking at what they would bring and what to swap them for?

Any advice?[Image: https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2019072...b65120.jpg]

Wobble after new tyres
Hi

I had new tyres fitted to the front on my 20inch standard wheels and there is a slight wobble at motorway speeds. I’ve had the front wheel alignment sorted and the wheel balancing checked by another garage and I also got the rears balanced but the wobble is still there. Any ideas? It was perfect prior to the new tyres being fitted. I was thinking of swapping the front and rear tyres to see if this helps
