Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    A full set if the best summer tyres you can afford would be the safest. Replacing tyres individually would create imbalance under braking.

    Unless you are living on the side of a mountain or steep incline just get some all season tyres like the Continental CrossClimate. And don't be replacing then 1 or 2 at time, it's not advisable to be mixing different season tyres like that. Either replace all 4 together or wait until you have the money for 4.
