My dad's Corolla Hybrid's rear right has a very slow leak and we went to My Car because it was the closest and he wanted the puncture repaired. The guys there were like, we can't do it because the tyre is too old and has cracks on the sidewalls. My dad is a (profanity) cheap bastard and only wanted to change the rear 2. The front 2 are cheap Chinese tyres that prob cost $80.
I found these Dunlops, which are well reviewed, and it's cheapest at Beaurepaires. I checked Bob Jane, Tyroola, Jax, Supercheap etc, and Beaurepaires are cheaper by $100+
So I booked it in, haven't told dad because I don't want to argue with him, and I'm just gonna steal his car and one day he'll have new, good tyres. I think tyres are one of, if not the most important component of a car or motocycle (lots of personal experience here), or any vehicle really. So don't cheap out.
Mod note: Pricing may vary in particular regions.
Bridgestone Turanza deal is back again, buy 3 get 1 free. It might be little extra than these, but it gives 50,000km wear life warranty. I had those just installed on my car, and feel is good. Also, the service from bridgestone has been amazing, they gave warranty booklet to inspect and rorate tyres every 5000km, and i think 1 puncture etc is free as well.
