JackStrong Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 Well its time to get some new tyres for the rears. Current cheap ones, fitted when bought are so loud and i have to travel quite a lot so quietness is key and also durability, lot of motorway driving. Any brand recommendations ? I know nothing about tyres. Cheap websites ? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ekona Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 Match the front, or change all four for something decent. If longevity and noise are your primary concerns, then you won't do better than the MPSS if they're available in that size. Cheap will be a false economy in the long run, but the Falken FK453 might be worth a punt if you're feeling brave (NOT the older cheapy 452s).

Sly@Kaizer Motor Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 275/40/18 isn't ,but 275/35/18 is available in Michelin Pilot Sport 3 for £545 (pair) fitted inc. VAT from us if you are near to Rochester in Kent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ekona Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 PS3 are not that good, certainly I don't think I'd be putting a set on a Zed. There's better options out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sly@Kaizer Motor Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 Agree on that, unfortunately MPSS not available in that size (at least from my supplier) otherwise I would recommend them too as they are brilliant on the GTRs.

Ekona Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 They're not even close to that size, are they? No idea why Michelin don't do those tyres in more sizes, they've practically got the market sown up as it is! Maybe that's why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tony.r123 Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 I've got the new Falken 453's on my new 19"Rota's in 275/35/19, go to say road noise is minimal and grip very good. Tread pattern looks much better than the 452's, looks just like the MPSS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
