Got some 225/45/17 Conti CS3s fitted today at Stratstone for what I thought was a bargain price of £120 per tyre.
I was going to get some F1 Assym 2s but they said that the weight of the tyre as stated in the specification isn't what was recommended. They said that they would fit them if I really wanted to but it wasn't strictly within spec because the Assym 2s were a lighter weight.
Have to admit I've never heard of tyre weights - I thought the 225/45/17 and speed rating was all you needed.
Anyone able to enlighten me on this?
