I'm off to France next week so was checking out the spare. It was at 17PSi so took it to the garage and decided to check the rest while I was there. Discovered that my front tyres are nearly on the limit wear-wise. Worst thing though is that there is afair amount of cracking in the rubber around the tread.
I'm fairly certain the fronts are the originals. I got the car with 27k on it and it has fairly unused P6000s on the back.
Anyway, problem is I have to drive from London to Exter tomorrow (Tues 7th) evening so need somewhere in SW London that can whack a new set of tyres on for a reasonable price. I don't particularly mind if I replace with Bridgestones. i thought maybe P6000s as they're on the back, or Eagle F1s.
Can anyone recommend:
A. Decent tyre for the front
B. Good tyre dealer in SW London (pref. an independant)
Thanks

 

Can you get out to Bracknell?

"Bracknell tyre and battery" .. believe the owner is an S driver too ..

 

No - he drives an M3 IIRC

Bracknell is where you need to go, or get Event out. www.eventmobiletyres.co.uk

btw don't mix your tyres.

 

There is usually a blue S there (has been the last few times I've been) .. hardtop too I think, must be one of the employees.

 

There's a place near me that can do P6000s for 105 each, fitted.
Seem reasonable?

 

not true. you can mix your tyres, but preferably not across the axle.
