I've just had two Nexen 3000s fitted to the MGF yesterday.:yesnod:

2x 215/40/16s- total price fitted and balanced - £96

Excellent value for these tyres!




I don't know what I'm going to do with all this money I'm saving!:rofl:

Bob, Tfs with 15" wheels do have 205/50 15 on the rear.
I get my tyres from a local tyre garage, they always beat any other place for price and service.:yesnod:

Hello bobtf and welcome to the forum. The Fs and TFs are very tyre sensitive and the wrong ones can affect the handling severley, what make of tyres are on the car at the moment and what are you proposing to replace them with?? ~ i hope the information David posted was helpful. ~ it is also reccomended that you have the FOUR WHEEL TRACKING checked /adjusted after fitting new tyres.

We all love our MGs :woohoo:

Good tyres. Just be wary that they may not play nicely with the other brand you have on the car.

Essential safety is a good excuse!! and the fronts should be cheaper as they are a smaller size. as a matter of interest how much did you pay for the rears (providing Sue is not looking) tonyb recently paid £74 each for rears & £69 for fronts fitted and balanced.

You should find that they are less noisy as the compound is softer, especially if you had Continentals previously :P
