Spanish Tyre Dealer Help?

[PetrolTed]

I´ve managed to scrub my tyres to buggery in Spain whilst on Eurohoon and urgently need to replace the rears (295/30 ZR 18) but they seem to be like rocking horse poo over here. Currently in Salamanca supping beer instead of driving

Anyone got any experience or suggestions for a rapid solution. Currently looks like I´ll be driving the rest of the route on the motorways instead of the mountain passes

Try calling the OPC in Madrid for a recommendation? Teléfono: 91 - 634.78.10

I used autoequip.com in Barcelona they're a chain but looks like just Catalunya However, they should be able to ship you some tyres to a local fitter - worth a call or email. I emailed in Spanish but they replied in English.

They gave me a very good price of 1276 euros for Michelin Pilot Sport 295/30 ZR18 x 2 & 235/40 ZR18 x 2.

I found them by emailing various suppliers I found through Google.

Good luck!

Thanks Gents.

Dettaglio the EuroHoon organisers have managed to source a set from Madrid. The tyres have now been received at the hotle, checked and OK for fitting this morning.

Bloody hell Ted, that's some going!

What have you been doing to them, or were they approaching their mid-life crisis before you went and the Lead Pack experience just tip them over the edge (not literally of course!).
