Hi there, long time no speak as car has been off the road for quite a while. I am trying to get me P38 back on the road and hoped someone in the know would be able to point me in the right direction for a value set of tyres, running standard 16" rims. I am looking for the cheapest option possible as I am not doing any mileage and funds are tight due to being on furlough

Can you mix and match brands and levels of wear as was considering a part worn set due to the low mileage I will be using the car.

It's a bloody pain in the bum. Step an inch over an invisible line and suddenly they won't post. Live on one of the Islands, and it's overseas, including Skye which has a sodding bridge! Bloody nonsense.
