What is on the other side as it is best to keep the same profile?

how good is the other tyre ideally you want to replace in pairs

Falken are good but Kumho are rising up through the ranks as for quality and are more mid range than budget now

well ive spoken to a mate that runs a tyre shop in rugby and hes qouted me the £60 for a hankook and said he will match tread pattern as close as possible, including speed rating / load rating,

so long as the actual tyre cost doesnt go above £90 then he will match as clsoe as possible for the original £60

can replace the other as the money is being borrowed as it is

thanks the info guys Smile

PS:

how long does a space saver last? i.e. if i get my tyre replaced can i put the space saver back to be used again?
