Kevin Bacon 5 Posted December 4, 2004 These are not too shabby in the slush/snow. Vred Sportrac's. That's exactly what you need for snow.....wide open tread blocks that don't fill up with compacted snow and turn the tyre into a slick. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tonytiger 0 Posted December 10, 2004 I need to replace a couple of tyres myself and have been phoning the local tyre places, in particular asking about the Bridgestone RE720 (in a 205/50 15 size) but keep getting told they've been replace by the RE040. Is that true? The Bridgestone website makes it look like they're just a different range rather than a replacement. Does anybody know if they're any good? Anybody tried the Toyo T1-R's? (I've read the somewhat conflicting opinion about the T1-S's). Also, does everybody else find they always have to order tyres in advance to get what they want, or are they usually available off the shelf? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dr_mat 0 Posted December 10, 2004 Has anyone tried Costco? They only do Michelin tyres, but they're usually at fantastic prices.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MikeVR6 0 Posted December 10, 2004 I normally have to order a day in advance to get a specific make/model of tyre. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tonytiger 0 Posted December 10, 2004 I eventually found someone who can supply the RE720, but I have to wait until Monday to get them. I don't like having to order because I usually need the tyres there and then but fortunately I now have a spare set of wheels - 2 of which have useable tyres on. £72 per tyre all in didn't seem especially cheap, but don't feel I'm being ripped off either.
