Not goodyear..last lot were Pirellis, these are some cheap stuff, they will tide me over till I can afford some decent rubber

Got my tyres from here as I can arrange cheaper fitting and balance locally. Good selection too.

Good prices, what date codes did you get?
im always suspicious of good prices that they may be last years tyres

The DOT code of the actual tyres I've bought has not been given but in their FAQs they ensure their tyres are no older than 24 months, in line with regulation.

185/75 14...?

Found my codes at last. Fronts are 2003, rears are 2001. There goes 5x £67 I wasn't planning on. A week after £730 on tyres for tintop as well, oh bu@@er. Bri

Other way! They should be 185/80 14, a little bit taller.

Ones I'm replacing are 185/70/14 so I'm down the middle! Van is dropped 80mm so it's all a bit snug in there anyway. I just rely on the iPhone for a speedo!

So, my tyres came today. Arrived a day late due to customs, because the tyres came from Germany. No bother, still very quick and keeps us on track for a weekend camp.

I couldn't find any DOT code, only these




£10 for fitting and disposal of my old tyres. Happy days.
