need 4 tyres for next test but was told to get retreads as the cabs old now and not worth spending over the odds on tyres. as anyone on here got experience of using them or heard any one slagging them off or saying good things about them...?

Squires if you believe the the b*llocks so far written than your a fool. I cant see the DFT or VOSA permitting retreads unless they were okay.....they dont last as long but in my experience they're ok.

Have you got a vehicle to use whilst yours is off the road? i rented one whilst mine was in, got it off Kindertons they are called, wasnt much and made the money back that had spent after 2 fares a day!
