Just ordered a pair of tyres for the 964 that I'm selling frown so I won't even get the pleasure of driving on them!

The tyres on the front are legal and aren't too bad, but I want the new owner to be happy with it so I thought I'd bang a new pair on.

Well what a wide range of prices.

Contisport contact 205/55 16.

Ranging from £123 mytyres up to £195 at a local fitter.

My tyres were the cheapest on these tyres of the online guys, and must say the website is great, provided the tyres actually arrive and are correct I will be very impressed!

I've found mytyres to be the cheapest online place too.

Only concern I have is the 7 day waiting period, is that worst case?

The only thing with mytyres is you have to find somewhere to get them fitted if you don't fit them yourselves.

I use Black Circles now - You buy the tyres online and then allocate a fitter in your local area. Good prices and the system works a treat.

Just got 4 N rated Conti Sport Contact 2 (255/40/17 & 205/50/17) for the 964 for £591.12 fitted.
