Actually I just did!(If you consider the freight charges)

Much to my surprise, I just phoned up to see how much a normal tyre company (i.e not an online wholesaler) would be, my local Tanvic Tyres depot offered me four fitted to the car and balanced for £148.50 inc. VAT each.

The 35 profile only has a 92 speed rating, but the 40 has a 97. Would this make any difference to our cars???

92 is the load rating = 630kgs each tyre. 97 is 730 kgs.

We just had a thread on this. IIRC old stock has to be older than 5 years???

They are for the Ro Mark. Not quite stock size, but for the price, I'll have them slightly lower.

Yes you're right, but i always thought 95 was a min.

From my own experience 95 gets very soft going and I can feel it in the corners, I (myself) wouldn't go any lower.

If I'm wrong with my understanding please say... I did get speed rating confused with load. hehe
