1990 C4 Tyres
Vettech:
The Gabriel Ultra Gas are excellent.
The tyres - ummm.. seems getting some fresh 275/40R17's is not so easy.
Looking at either Pirelli Pzero Nero or Kumho KU22 or KU31, but again, getting them is another thing.
I think its time to visit tyre shops and see if going a little smaller may be an option.
Web shopping has issues - some sites will not allow 17" selection on 275/40 tyres.
I wonder if enough interested parties wanting this size could get a maker to do some fresh bulk lots. ????.
MY081:
Hi Doug I'll call my supplier Monday and get some prices and availability. How about your rears can you give me size . Ray
Vettech:
I know the 315's look killer on the rear, but I think I'll go back to OEM.
275/40 R17 all round.
The wheels are identical all round.
Kumho KU22 or KU31. Pirreli Pzero Nero.
There is an El cheapo called Federal - tread looks ok - but no info on them.
Vettech:
Looked at internet tyre mobs, they can be min 1yr to 4yrs old.
They do cheap, but thats probably because they buy up old stock.
Also is the Ku31 a better design or later design, than the Ku22, or are they suited to totally different conditions.

Just bought a three on tyroola to check it out, saved some money, so may be worth while comparing against what your paying.
Interesting way to buy tyres, they get shipped to the shop of your choice for fitting.
