NWZ Posted May 27, 2009 Posted May 27, 2009 Get it bought - bargain Just be careful if you have a different tyre on the other side. Quote
Trev-the-Rev Posted May 27, 2009 Posted May 27, 2009 Get it bought - bargain Just be careful if you have a different tyre on the other side. +1 This is not a Potenza so is a different compound to the Bridgestones fitted as OE. This will definately make for different handling characteristics and will also probably upset the TCS. Quote

sunset350z Posted May 27, 2009 Posted May 27, 2009 Just be careful if you do fit that tyre. Running 2 diffrent tyres on the same axle will affect the handling in all weathers!!! Take it really easy and hurry up and save for the proper tyres all round. We don't want another casualty Quote

Take it really easy and hurry up and save for the proper tyres all round. We don't want another casualty yeh it's not ideal to have two different tyres on the rear. I will only be doing a relatively straightforward commute of about 5 miles into work everyday and no major trips. literally just need to get myself back up to legal limit asap. Quote
Ekona Posted May 27, 2009 Posted May 27, 2009 I'd rather get the bus than risk £20K worth of car. If you can't afford 2 new tyres (and yes, you need to change both sides at the same time) then can you really afford to run the car? If you think having both rears down to the limit is dodgy, then this is dodgy x infinity. Quote
