Kevin Bacon 5 Posted September 10, 2010 Cheapest fitted prices for my favourite Conti Sport 3s:- 205/40/17 - £119 inc VAT 215/40/17 - £129.50 inc VAT And they're on back order :mad2: Might have to go with cheap Korean tyres again :lol: Shame as the Contis are noticable lighter than other tyres I've used and don't tramline half as much.... always fancied giving the hankook V12 Evos a whirl actually..... Goodrich profiler Gs are another light and grippy tyre actually and are a michelin subsidary.... decisions decisions. What's everyone else going for?

herisites 0 Posted September 10, 2010 Kev, I've just been looking for the Kumho KU31's again in 205/40/17 and Camskill (who are the cheapest by a mile!) don't have any in stock :( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted September 10, 2010 Cheers Rob. I think they've been superceded by the KH31 now? (KevHaywire31, PMSL!!) I want to try something different this time round, so I'll do some research, but I would have no qualms using the Kumhos again though if I can't find anything I like for reasonable money, top tyre!

herisites 0 Posted September 10, 2010 Yeah I thought they'd been replaced by the KH31's but Camskill don't have them in 204/40/17. Hopefully they do very soon though! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
matty.vrt 0 Posted September 10, 2010 im going with 215/40 good year eagle gsd3 as ive got a full nearly new set kicking about. i think im going over to conti 3's after but couldent justify now with the eagles lying about. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
coullstar 0 Posted September 10, 2010 Etiher going to swap over my 205's Falken from the TH2's or use the tyres Im getting from TheDude which are also 205's but in Toyo and Khumo flavour. Ive had no issues with the 205's on my TH2's. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
big ben 10 Posted September 10, 2010 my falken 205's are coming off the rotas, the stretch is perfect for me Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ben-B 0 Posted September 10, 2010 I don't think I'll be worrying about tyres until winter. These Comps are summer tyres, I think I'll leave the OZs on the car until November, then fit winter tyres to the TT Comps I got from dukest, then sell the OZs over winter and sort out summer tyres for the MOs ready to fit in Spring.

OSV 0 Posted September 10, 2010 New 205/40ZR17 Dunlop Sport SP9000 x 4 for me Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ben-B 0 Posted September 10, 2010 After a quick Camskill look... I'm thinking maybe Conti Sport Contact 3s... £108.80 for 215/40, or £109 for 205/40. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
coullstar 0 Posted September 10, 2010 Well here you go. Look pretty good and plenty of caliper clearance for me (index finger width). Im still in a dilema to fit them or not. Would be rude not to but I just cant see past my other wheels. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OSV 0 Posted September 10, 2010 Just the look I was hoping for just looks like the Speedlines, I would think even purists would approve Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pat_McCrotch 0 Posted September 10, 2010 Kev these will look amazing. Look just like enlarged Speedlines :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

8vMatt 1 Posted September 10, 2010 Have to admit, when I first saw these wheels on the Compomotive website I wasn't overly bothered with them. I couldn't really see the attraction :cuckoo: BUT.......Now I see them on the C, oh yes indeed! Awesome for sure :notworthy: I don't mind admitting I was completely wrong on these :nuts: Well done guys. And Rob, I'll be around next week to have a close look at them!

BILLCOR 1 Posted September 11, 2010 Rims look fantastic chaps, for those looking at 215 tyres, have a look here http://www.clickontyres.com/Vredestein/21540_ZR17_Vredestein_Ultrac_Sessanta_XL_87Y I have these on my A3 Quattro and cant fault them, they are also a bargain at that price, cheapest I could find anyway and were delivered next day 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted September 11, 2010 They look MUCH better than I was expecting. Maybe it's just the red paint, but I hope they look that good on everyone else's! I can't believe you're in two minds Coullstar. TH2s are to Lancia Deltas like MOs are to Corrados, so get em off and get the MOs on! :D Tyres... I can't decide. I've found my car much preferes Assymetric tyres like the Conti Sport, Kumho KU19 etc, so it'll be either of those two I reckon. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Danny B 0 Posted September 11, 2010 Wow these look spot on :clap: Just what the corrado is crying out for a bigger standard (ish) speedline (ish) wheel !! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
