These tyres are noticeably better in the wet. Can feel the grip just stays as if there was no water. You drive through large water logged areas and have massive confidence.Also they are so quiet. It's made our driving much more enjoyable.

Just answered you on another thread before I saw your new one!:doh: https://www.motorhomefun.co.uk/foru...nental-vanco-camper-tyre.298968/#post-6434011
 
They've been around a long time like all the cheaper brands they wear quicker than "The names" but depending on annual mileage, how long you own the vehicle and your belief's on life span can workout as good value...plenty of people change hardly worn tyres due to age ,again depending on your beliefs part worn brand name can be a similar priced option,many won't share my opinion but I have used part worn for over 30 years on a variety of vehicles without a single problem,I've also used a variety of cheepo new tyres some wear very quickly,some crack within a couple of years others are fine

Had all 5 fitted earlier in the year. Same size bought through Asda Tyres and fitted by Bathwick Tyres.
I did two orders to make full use of their discount codes at the time but all fitted together.
Not done too many miles since but I'm really pleased with them so far and running at 51/59 psi.

Mine worked out at £110.42 a tyre fitted.
Had to get the TPMS changed on my Peugeot Boxer to match new pressures but Sleeveless kindly helped me with this during a meet up.

Ours is Fiat Ducato 3500kg but looking to uprate next year plus semi air. We average around 5000 miles per year, so changing due to age of tyres not tread wear ...

I got 80,000kms ,50k miles out of a pair on the front of my 2,7T mpv . Never found anything that wore quickly on the front as I was expecting, even on this van, Last pair did 70k kms.
