    MY18 R Line 20” continental tyre replacement time

    Hi guys,

    I have a Jan MY18 R Line Tiggy that’s due for its first set of front tyres. I only got 30,000 from new out of them.

    I’m in Perth, can anyone recommend a good tyre shop with good prices to replace the fronts? Are Continentals the best replacement for noise and longevity? Open to suggestions. It’s driven like a granny most of the time =>

    Best to rotate your tyres and then replace all 4 at the same time.

    I’ve had reasonable mileage from the Pirelli Scorpion Verde. Looks like I’ll get around 45,000km from the set given how they are wearing.

    I’ve left it too late to rotate them. The backs are hardly worn. Price each? How is the noise compared to the continentals?

    Hey mate, I really didn’t like the continentals from factory at all. I had the 18s. I have now put on the 20 inch rims and running pirelli p zero. Might be execssive for the use but during this wet weather they have been fantastic.

    Tempe tyres ship everywhere and have very good prices, if not the best.
