tyre question

hi, i have got to replace my uvc and ird within the next few weeks. The reason is i have miss matched tyres.
Been looking on the internet and came across a firm called OPONEO who supply new tyres, i can get 4 new Pirelli Scorpion Zero A Simme 225/55/17 tyres for £140.00p with free delivery. Has any one used these people any feed back would be good. My firdt thought is if it sounds to good to be true it is... What do you people think ?

Is that per tyre? Sorry am Not sure about the p behind.

No £140.oop for four tyres

Paid £80 each for Chinese cheapo's so £35 each for genuine Pirelli seams to good to be true.

That's a unit price per tyre, if you have 4. Total cost would be £140 X 4 = £560.
There's no way 4 Pirelli Scorpions are £140!!

Just been on there,try adding to cart and you will see the real price for one, four etc

We'll could be if fallen from a lorry as we say here...

For that price I think I'd still go for reifendiscount.de. 4 conti cross contact uhp the size you mentioned for 139 eur/ea plus 6.5/ea shipping would make it 120£/ea but they sim price. My size 215/65/16 they sell for 90eur/ea

Ive got Chinese all terrains on Ive done 13,000 miles on them so far on and off road and they seem fine to me I think on this kind of car its not quite as important to get high quality tyres as you are not as likely to be taking it to the limit around corners etc

5x pirelli scorpian str's on mine. 215/65R16 98H size. Supply + fit for £576. Fitted about 18 months ago.

Ive bought Chinese crap on many occasions. .....and to be honest I cant fault them.....got some on a V6 golf and love them......brilliant in the wet, abs dont even kick in......I was very very surprised wanlis I think they are called......

When I got my 16" scorpions 2 years ago they were £75 each fitted, now they are around the £100 mark

Looking for 17" scorpions recently and I found cheaper than that

i've got an str waiting to be collected!

Anybody used General Grabber AT tyres?

I've got them on my wife's FL2 and I'm happy with then . I've lost about 1mpg over the original fit conti's and their not as good in the dry , but in the wet or snow or in muddy conditions the are excellent .
