ARRIVAMAN Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 Hi people , just joined today , hope I may be able to contribute now and again , have had Fords for a number of years last two cars were Focus hatchbacks , bought new in 2000 (x reg ) exchanged in 2010 for 57 plate , as you can imagine they have been very reliable hence the time period . use to repair my cars myself up to 2000 but found a great mobile mechanic ( Honest and very good value ) which is quite unusual these days , if it helps any body just changed my tyres for the first time on my present Focus 205/55/16 after a search on-line got a very good set of Goodyear Efficentgrip Performance off Asda fitted by Halfords for £70 each , that's a good saving compared to most outlets. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ARRIVAMAN Posted August 20, 2014 Author Share Posted August 20, 2014 Welcome to the family Alf! did you say you got tyres from Asda? Yes it sounds crazy only noticed on there web site the word tyres , I thought at first it was for pedal cycles , but when I clicked on found it was for cars , Good price compared to most outlets , just drove to Chester 90 mile round trip mostly Motorway my old Bridgestones gave me 40mpg , today I got 50mpg at 70mph plus the stopping was excellent . I've got 3 trips to Wembley to watch the NFL this year plus a couple to see my son in Berkshire all 400 mile round trips on mainly Motorways so hopefully might get a few pound back in fuel economy .

ARRIVAMAN Posted August 21, 2014 Author Share Posted August 21, 2014 Welcome to the forums. Great find for the tyres in Asda of all places. Wish we had Asda here in Ireland :) Thank you , I also found a similar price for the Goodyear's which I bought on a Tyre site called Meyer's , Like Asda they give you a selection of places to go to in your area to get them fitted as an all in one price , may be worth checking out they may cover Ireland :) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hassen Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Cool. Thanks for the recommendation and will keep it in mind the next time I need tyres. Going to google for that place now and save the website :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
