tyres issue again!

[RS4KILLA]

hi is anyone running the avon zz3 255 35 r19 xl y??
what do you think to it?

[Nib]

Seem to recall that one of the mags (Evo?) tested a set of Avons some time back in their tyre test. I don't think they rated them too highly........

[aidanjaye]

zz3's come as standard fitment to morgans and such. heard that they suit lighter cars although I run them on a B6 S4 and rated them, good dry grip, better wet grip and excellent wear rate. At the top of the lower priced tyre rahnge IMO. (but for a few quid more you'll get goodyear 275s)

just changed mine today was going to put Goodyear f1 on but 3-4 weeks wait as out of stock, so spent the money and put Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 on great tyre, the best and what a fantastic rim protector must be a new design as it wasn't on the last set I put on the M3. Worth every penny, even if it may be 2k a year on tyres.

2k a year!! I hope your doing big mileage? Set of F1s only cost 700 fitted.

I changed from Pirelli P Zero’s to Avon ZZ3’s due to needing a full set and these were the only ones instock. For the first 100 miles or so I thought I made a mistake, but now I think I made the right move, good in all conditions, quiet and also half the price of the Pirelli. Hope this helps.

thanks

Set of F1s only cost 700 fitted.

Can you tell me where you got the goodyears from for such a good price? Ta.

MyTyres were doing 275 F1's for £680 for 4 delivered, Camskill another good bet.

[aidanjaye]

Suprisingly - KwikFit were doing them around the 680 fitted. Try them but watch the fitters - some can be a tad harshy.

[mrboons]

680 fitted for 4 tyres is one hell of a price (although I share the caution about some kwik fit fitters!)

Anyone got any experience of the F1s - any good?

[P_G]

Think 680 is good, 600 fitted for the Vredesteins on 275/30's

[mrboons]

P_G - where from?

[P_G]

Was £560 delivered from Camskill plus £10 per corner with a local fitter.

How many different sizes can you fit on a rs4 and what is the best size to have
