    VX Executive Series 2
    Hey guys and girls,

    Looking at buying a set of 4 standard tyres for my vx series 2 executive.

    Have been told Pirelli P6 are good, but wondering what people's feedback are on tyres that are 205/65/R15 as I would like to just stay on a standard tyre size.

    Any other brands of tyres that are good or better than Pirelli P6? I'm after an all round tyre, that will hopefully give me enough life until i get a new car in a couple of years!

    Help is always appreciated.

    is it just a everyday driving car?

    if you wanna cheap out you could get some bob jane all rounders

    from what ive heard the P6's are great and highly recommended...but just like the recommendation so is the price

    ive heard good stuff about the Yokohama C.drive

    if you go to the bob jane website use there search and using the advance search you can zero out all the brands and tyres that are 205/65/15R and you can get a idea
    so when you go to your desired shop for your tyres it might make it easier to choose

    i run 225/60/15R on my Exec,Set of Bridgestones ER30Z's
    ive found that the Bridgestones are great in the wet,dont produce much road noise and really smooth,ive gone over train tracks at 80 and not felt it much.

    i have been quoted 115 ea for the p6 tyres from jax quickfit tyres...

    it is an every day drive car (freeway driving), and planning to probably upgrade in a year or two...

    just need a tire that will handlle good in the wet, but i dont need an all wet weather tyre.

    hence why i've only been reading good things bout the p6's!
