Need some new rubber?

Post by Dobbs » Fri Oct 26, 2012 9:09 pm

If anyone is looking for tyres, I can recommend http://www.Camskill.co.uk who are one of the cheapest about, do next day delivery and are very knowledgeable over the phone. 2x 205x17x45's Hankook Ventus V12's cost £168 and my local tyre fitter charge £20 to fit and balance them both, total = £188.

I was going to go for Toyo Proxies T1R's having had them on my other Ludes, but the Hankook's got a better rating and user reviews as did the AvonZZ3's (another comparable tyre).

The guy at Camskills was honest enough to say that the Avons were about to be discontinued and then left the choice up to me - no 'hard-sell', just good, honest advice.

I'd also recommend visiting http://www.tyrereviews.co.uk and check out actual user ratings and reviews before purchasing your rubbers (tyres).

I was looking at the toyos 205x50x16's from Camskill as theyre well priced but i wont need to fit any new rubber till next spring.
Good to hear that their service is as good as their prices.
