cheers ProTyre Bristol . . .

changed my first set of rear tyres today at Protyre (fit only as they couldnt get hold of the right tyres for me this time) the technician was great (Tony) careful & caring - all very easy with the right attitude, training and equipment.

Cheers!

How many miles did you get from the first set?

That's good. My rears lasted about 12000 and the fronts were replaced at 23000.

I think its a miracle myself - I remember when I bought my first M car in 1997 - the first set of rears last just 3000km!!!!

I have always used Pro Tyre, will not trust anybody else for tyres.

That is good wear rate - what make of tyres? Fronts only lasted 16k on our XF diseasal and rears were down to 3mm after 8k which was a bit of a surprise!

the car came with Goodyear Eagle F1 N0's all round - which are almost impossible to get hold of right now - luckily a nice PH'er found me some rears so I didnt have to swap all 4!

Next time I will change to Michelin's as I like them a lot - but the Goodyears feel good too!

Mine came with Bridgestones if you're stuck for choice next time. I've no complaints with them.

Not sure if I'll get 15400 miles out of them though.
