Tyres

My car came fitted with Michelin Latitude Sport tyres (20") on style 6 wheels.
I have no experience of 4x4's regarding tyre wear, performance etc - however the roadholding is superb, ride comfort not too bad (we are used to slightly 'harsher' rides) - plus they have a nice 'rim' to protect the alloys.

However, I have just checked on BlackCircles, and they are £338.77 each Laughing

They also have Pirelli P Zero's at £172.80 each.

Are the Michelins twice as good (are they likely to wear half as much, making them cost effective?)

Not looking forward when the day comes.....................!

RE: Tyres

Continental Cross Contact came on my 20" style 7, delivered last week..... No idea what they are like. But like you, I have been looking at prices. The Pirelli seem decent value

RE: Tyres

The Mich Latitudes are supposed to be very good and wear well too - the PZeros wil soft, sticky, grip like mad and wear out very quickly...
