I've got to replace x2 Pirelli P600 on the rear. The
fronts have got 4mm of tread on them so good for a
while. The Pirelli's are coming in at �99 each so
wondering if it's a good idea to make a switch or not
to a cheaper Bridgestone or Uniroyal. I guess it's a
no no to have different tyres on front and rear?

Size is - 225/60 R15

I'm just having a pair of Kumho Ecsta 712's put on the rear of the Highline, thats 255/40/17. 85.00 fitted, balanced etc all in each.

Have read some great reviews on them & we put a pair on the rear of the E34 & I've been very impressed with them thus far.

My 635's.
