New Tyres

[Rat Catcher]

That's why I didn't give the address initially, you specified southside... just giving you an idea of what we pay outside of the big city.

Here, DM... have you ever priced yours in norn Iron? I know a few lads who go up specially to get brake pads, tyres and such like.

^^^thanks Hal.Do you remember if they were noisier or less efficient?I was considering buying 15 inch wheels off adverts to make it a little quieter but I probably just need a new car..

Obviously at this stage you wouldn't bother your bollox changing wheels as the car will soon be consigned to travellers yard for a birra clocking,there's a bit more rubber on the ground...as for noise,I don't remember if it was....with my current shape I have 215/45/17's....I pay €80 a corner for them from my local tyre supplier.

^^^^I still have over year left Hal.I noticed there was a set of 15 inchers for your yoke on adverts too.300notes.

Also had a passenger complaining that his prius model like yours with the drug dealer alloys was very noisy.Whatever I buy next I'll be putting tiny wheels on it.Our roads are far too shit for big wheels.

You're right....one thing I did notice with my current yoke...and it pisses me off no end is the turning circle...it's fukin horrendous,has to be related to the 17" wheels,my previous with 16" wheels had no such issues,neither does my missusss Focus also with 16" wheels.

No rat I don't remember pricing anything like that up north,I think I did get a service once though I don't think it's particularly cheap up there for things like that though

I didn't like the big wheels on the upper end prius for the following reasons .. Lower profile and wider, they  less comfortable, noiser, an increased rollin resistance use more fuel, more expensive tyres .... Unsuitable for a city taxi in me humbled opinion
