The 330i: 15k miles on!

Thanks for the post Tom, I found it interesting as that is exactly the car im looking to buy next, however finances are holding me back. I cant wait for the day I can afford one of those.

if you have any more questions about them give us a shout :) they're truly very good cars if you want something capable but can only have one car :)
 
They're Vredestein Ultrac Sessantas, absolutely love them mate :)

I do think perhaps the batch of eagle f1s i had before were dodgy, as they were nowhere NEAR as good as these, very predictable and great grip in all the conditions thrown at it so far (except snow :p)
 
I'm seriously looking at those tyres! Mytyres.co.uk quote about £560 fully fitted for em - about £200 saving on PS2s which I have now!
 
Jeeze... might be peanuts to some, but I get annoyed at spending £70 for a bridgestone tyre for my focus (last set lasted me 25k miles on the front). £700+ in 9 months? Guess I need to jump a wage bracket or two :p

Remember my rear tyres arent too far short of a foot wide :p (255mm)
 
If you haven't already had them fitted then why not try some RE050A? They are the only tyres i am ever buying again, they seem more than adequate (grip higher than i have ever dared to risk it) in all conditions and last for absolutely ever.
 
Hmm they do seem to have gone up, the place i got my local place to pricematch to was camskill and the rears are £20 a piece more now, and the fronts £10 a piece more, were £120/90 when i bought them! That was only in January

EDIT

actually i got them to price match inc fitting to these:

And they're still that price :) Win.

Useful cheers!
 
Have ordered 4 Vredesteins from Elite for delivery to my BMW specialist for fitting on Friday. :)

£414. :D
