Tyres for Mk3 Golf Estate - cottontop
Hi all,

I've got a N reg Mk3 Golf Estate (Diesel) that are due some new tyres. I do a general mix of driving (round town, motorway, country roads).

Tyre size is 185/60/14 H

Its currently got 2 Arrowspeed (cheap Kwik fit brand) on the front (the ones that need changing) and BF Goodrich on the back (don't need changing).

Cheers

Richard

www.mytyres.co.uk has BF Goodrich tyres for £29.30 per corner + fitting, balancing etc. (an average of £10 but can be as low as £6).

I'm using Hankook K406s in the same size/speed rating on my Peugeot 306 and they are excellent for grip, reasonably quiet and apparently long-lasting after 7k miles. They're £30.60 on mytyres.co.uk + fitting, balancing etc.

For comparison, Arrowspeeds are £39.50 each, fitted, and at my local tyre place I pay less for Hankooks than I would for Arrowspeeds in Kwik Fit.
