I wouldn't say that, saxo's can go around corners

Gilly · 13 Aug 2005 at 13:00

Hope its dry tomorrow. She needs new boots :/

paradigm · 13 Aug 2005 at 13:01

Mine needs new rears too, fronts are good, rears... aren't

agw_01 · 13 Aug 2005 at 13:02

I've got 3 good ones, and one that really needs replacing. Sad thing is, is that 2 of the good ones are leaking air

paradigm · 13 Aug 2005 at 13:04

So you only have 1 good one then

How do you end up with one worn tyre anyway :confused:

I always replace in multiples of 2 (ie 2 or 4).

Braeden · 13 Aug 2005 at 13:05

Still if it's a french car meet..... :eek:

You can still attend, dont worry.

No idea. They were like that when I got the car.

3 of them are cheapy Star Performer tyres (with the bald one being on the front), and the other one on the front is a Pirelli which had loads of tread when I bought the car, so I think some numpty who owned the car before only got one tyre replaced.

Shame though, the Pirelli is a good tyre... if not a little low on tread

Same here (new Eagle F1s on the front, badly worn budgets on the rear), more fun that way

paradigm · 13 Aug 2005 at 13:09

Dunlop SP9000's on the front, a month old. Continental Contisport Contacts on the rear, with only the bare minimum of tread left. Still not had the rear step out though, and believe me, ive tried

Would have bought all 4 last month, but when 195/40/r16 Tyres cost around £80-85 per corner, it would have left me a little short.

cymatty · 13 Aug 2005 at 13:11

F1s on the front 6months old, and the original pilot sports on the rear.

thedazman67 · 13 Aug 2005 at 13:22

Ohhhh, the rain has stopped and the sun is out. Just been out to give the wheels a once over (damn brake dust) and am going to polish and clean the interior now.

It absolutely stinks of old cigarettes in there

I hate smoking and really shouldn't let my girlfriend smoke when in the car.

Kamerad · 13 Aug 2005 at 14:39

Hope the weather is good for you tommorow, been in that area this morning and its covered in thick fog.

Goliath · 13 Aug 2005 at 14:44

Seriously miffed that i can't be there tomorrow lads (at least i'd reduce the high french percentage) - Have fun anyway.
