modo Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 Hi everyone, just doing some research, I want to have my alloys refurbished and a new set of tyres. Rays alloys on a 2005 350Z GT. I've been given a price of around £780 that's with kumo tyres 225s on the front and 245s on the back. That's with the wheel specialist in Swansea.  Any recommendations I'm not too sure about the Tyre's Sent from my HTC One M9 using Tapatalk Sent from my HTC One M9 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmy.farrow7 Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 Its £50 a corner for a refurb round my way, i would recommend putting a decent set of tyres on the Z, have you tried black circles online for tyres as they are very good and have all the top brands of tyres. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SHEZZA Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 (edited) That price is for each tyre then ? £285 for all 4 from Tyreleader. Total rip off you could get MPSS for that money, granted not fitted. Get the tyres yourself and get them to fit them.

I'm just going for the refurb, Going to get the tyres from my local independent tyre specialist Haven tyres. Still cheaper, and he's honest, rather the trade went there, he's supplied us for years now. Sent from my HTC One M9 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easty Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 I'm looking for two new rear tyres for my Rays at the moment after a run in with a screw in the side wall.... Had to put a used budget on because it happened on Christmas when everywhere was shut, and it's terrible!! Stick decent rubber on in pal.... Bridgestone Potenza 245/45 18 best iv got quoted is about £120 each and that for the rear...... Not bothered with the front. Also £50 per alloy for a refurb is right, shouldn't be much above that and probably won't find much below.... You can normally change the colour of your alloys for that price too if that's what you want to do 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
