hi all,
    was wondering if anyone knew a good place to get some new tyres for my A3 audi ??

i have got potenza 215/45 R17 at the moment which comes at about $350 per tyre from firestone which is way out of my budget.

anyone know something similar which is for cheaper around auckland area ??

merry xmas to all Smiley

The guys at magwarehouse Glenn innes are doing some good deals on rubber!
165/50/15's were $175 each   Not sure about 17's? but they have tons of stock.

You can probably get some Nankangs in that size for less than $200 each.

Lol, regardless if it's an Audi or not you'd still have to buy tyres...

What Golfboy is getting at is that every thread Ceasarnz has ever posted has always been themed around,  "how and where can i cut maintenance corners/costs on his/her audi.."

I think if money is truely an issue perhaps a toyota Carolla Windy II would be a far more suitable car...
