From Jefferies Tyres in Bromsgrove Westmidlands 01527831829.

Look online you can get tyres sent to your home or direct to a fitter in your area for good prices. All the big fitters like Kwik Fit rip you off

when they know what car its for.

maxim / federal are good tyres mid range budget but v good
the tread wear raitin on the side of the tyre tells u how good the tyre is the higher it is the longer / harder it is ie anything over 280 is long lasting and harder compound anything below is grippier but wont last long
i learned this from the maxis rep when i used to fit tyres at the taxi company where i used to work when we moaned that a set of tyres only lasted 4000 miles we had a set with a 200 rateing
