    Strange Tyre Prices

    I have been pricing tyres. Two -225x40x19 and two-255x35x19. One would expect the narrower tyres with higher profiles to be the cheapest but no- the wider tyres with lower profile are cheaper. It seems strange to me.

    Vito 120 Sport X spare tyre?

    Hi This is my first post on here so hello. I've just purchased a 2008 Vito 120 Sport X. I have the 18" Brabus wheels fitted but no spare. The manual is very unclear as to whether I should have a spare. There is a plug in compressor but no tyre sealant so I'm guessing it was supplied without...

    Bigger wheels tyre preasure

    I changed the wheels on my W210 pretty soon after I got the car, but I've always been in doubt as to what the tyre presure should be since I've gone for bigger wheels. The car originally came with 16" Mercedes Fidis alloys (cant remember the tyre size). I now have Staggered 18" AMG...

    So need 4 new tyres. Will go with either PS4 or Conti Sport Contact 5. Both are obviously very good tyres. It rains a lot in Scotland so would be good to hear any opinions on which is best in the rain. Cheers Nick

    Tyre valves

    Do those fancy metal tyre valves need replacing when you fit new tyres on a W205 with run flats? There's mention of potential extra cost due to valves that I've found whilst I've been pricing tyres on a couple of websites.
