Accelera Tyres on Roberto’s recommendation.
Having read Roberto wax lyrical about this brand over the years I finally took the plunge, with an open mind.
Should get them fitted tomorrow. Got them from Camskill for £57.50 before fitting. 255 40 19s.

That's cheap for 19", but only C rating for wet performance and last time I bought brand new cheap brand they lasted about 3k miles when second hand Michelin with 7mm+ can be had for similar money and can do 20k miles.

I’ve read really mixed reviews of them, so I’m trying to keep an open mind. I’ve always run decent brand tyres on my cars. If they’re anything like the cheap brands the wife used to insist on having on her Honda, I’ll be disappointed. Slightest bit of rain and they were ditch finding. I don’t like used tyres, and the positive reviews online and from Robert persuaded me to give them a go.

I was thinking of buying them when he advertised his last batch but I had bought a set of Pirellis for 305-35% off list as they were as new, 8mm and were removed upon delivery of a new car so no miles. I may get them in the future if there are enough good reviews. I am also confident roberto would not advertise them if they were that poor.

A6 currently have Michelin PA4 that I bought autumn 2017 unused old stock £200 for 4, did about 4k miles last winter and about 11k this winter, still 5-5.5mm with hard driving. Will change to summers soon and do another winter on these and still will be able to sell them on ebay with 2-3mm. But have to say I did like old PA3 better.

That’s good to hear. I got them from Camskill too, delivery is great. Oponeo put their prices up before I could order.
