New Tyres and Best Place to Shop 3 Years, 6 Months ago  
Hi,

I need to buy a new set of tyres (205 50 R17). What tyres would you recommend and where would be the best place to shop? Mainly value for money.

Thanks in advance,

Ozgur.

Replaced mine with Toyos and very happy with them. There are some other suggestions on this thread

Apologies 3 Years, 6 Months ago  
Apologies... I'm in Cranbourne, Melbourne. Though I'm happy to travel around Melbourne if there's something specific available.

as luck would have it... 3 Years, 5 Months ago  
As luck would have it... yesterday afternoon my wife dropped into a pothole on Cranbourne Narre Warren Rd (near Thompsons Road ) and the tyre blew up. So now I "have to" change the tyres. Doesn't leave much room for shopping around.

I got my last set of toyos from Tyre power in Hastings at around $700 for four fitted and balanced. He had them in stock at the time.
