TYRE
CHOICE
Choosing the specification
The main things that effect tyre price are whether the tyre is
budget or branded quality and the speed rating you choose
Budget or Branded
Both are perfectly legal for the road but to get the most cost
effective choice just ask yourself which would suit your driving
style best. Here are a few pointers:
Typical user - Budget
* Car used for shorter journeys
* Small to medium cars
* Infrequent motorway use
Typical user - Branded
* High mileage driver
* Performance car
* New car
To make further savings if you have opted for branded tyres don't
ask for a specific make. We vary which brand we buy depending
on who is offering the best price at the time of purchase
Speed rating
Quite simply the higher the speed rating the more it costs - So
again pick one that suits your driving. See below
