I have always used premium before but... last march my mot failed due to tyres , i have 255/35/19 and got quoted just shy of £1000... i went to a local garage who said they have budget tyers £300 inc fitting balance etc. I went for it and i was supprised. They are very quiet, great in wet, wear after 1 year is minimum. Very happy :) even if they will last half the milage of premium tyers its still more cost effective than spending £1k
