Has anyone bought from these before? I've been watching the price on camskill but it's not come down that far.

Always worth keeping an eye on 255s too for the rear, they're often cheaper

£150 even on camskill

Are you running 255 35 19 front and rear?

Have lots of life left in my Sport Maxx (245 35 19) but I think I'll try the MPSS next...

As 007 said, apparently it's wise to keep to 245s at the front.

The 255s came up around 260-263 wide when I measured. I wasn't sure exactly which part you're supposed to consider part of the width measurement, as naturally the tread pattern has a rounded edge either side hehe

Furthest part of the outer wall excl any raised lettering to the furthest part of the inner wall excl any raised lettering. According to my latest research on the wonderful world of tyre whoring smile
