Two of my Euros use 225/45R17, I just fit 235/45R17 and save about $30 a tyre orOriginally Posted by boosted
more depending on brand.
225/45 Euro and a few others, 235/45 Holdens, guess which is cheaper and why.

Same, 225/40R18 on mine, 235/40R18 which matches Commodore/Falcons was a solid 30-80$ tyre cheaper depending on brand/model

yes, but you can't compare them in price though. Of course there is going to be a difference when you aren't comparing tyres in the same target range.
Not worth the money I reckon. I don't find the bridgestones noisy, the tread blocks are pretty closed, and performance wise, the RE003 will be more than enough tyre for the nopics car. Id probably save the money, you aren't going to get an extra 25% life out of the PS4's compared to the RE003's.

Just had the same choice for my GTI, went the RE003 on the 4 for 3 deal and I'm very happy. They work well on the GTI. Replaced a set of Conti Sport Contact 3's.
Legends, thanks.
Have RE003s on nopics Mini Cooper S and they're pretty good. About to order another set for my Evo.

Redux ... 2 of the 4 15yo tyres shredded on the tyre-removal machine while they were fitting my set for $685. So I think I was pretty lucky!
That seems like good value to me, the nowhere-near-as-good Falkens were more than that 15 years ago.
Soft roaders represent an excellent compromise between the needs of the hardcore 4x4 user and the convenience of a city hatchback. Its clear to see why they have become so popular in todays society.
Anyone used Bridgestone RE71R yet?
I'm wondering if they're as good as Advan AD08R

Can you even get them here?

Yup, only through Motorsport dealers, so will be rather pricey at a guess.
