What Tyres?

Postby Richard_E » Mon Jan 29, 2024 2:17 pm

My car has 235/50 17 wheels. I used to fit Pirelli tyres. I like Pirellis, but they don't make tyres in that size any more. So I switched to Goodyears instead. But now it looks like Goodyear have also stopped making them in that size. So, what's the alternative? Any recommendations?

Hi Richard, If you go to the Kwik Fit website (Note you don't have to purchase your tyres there) you can type in your registration, or alternatively the tyre size data that you are looking for and you will be given lots of information about tyres that are suitable for your vehicle.

I typed in the outline details and got 4 options from 3 manufacturers, all at a decent price and all premium brands.

Just type "Kwik Fit" into your browser and go from there.
