Understand this tyre

What the size on the sidewall means245/40 R18
245 · Width
The tyre is 245 mm wide, measured sidewall to sidewall.
40 · Profile
Sidewall height is 40% of the width — a low profile, giving sharper steering response.
R18 · Rim
Fits an 18-inch wheel. Must match your rim diameter exactly.

Born from endurance racing and fitted by Porsche, Ferrari, Tesla and Mercedes, this ultra-high-performance tyre uses Variable Contact Patch 2.0 and a Twaron Belt for stability during high-speed cornering. Bi-compound technology aims to deliver strong wet-surface control. Michelin claims 16 consecutive Le Mans 24 Hours victories behind its development. Recommended for drivers wanting precision steering and cornering engagement.

    Needed full set of new tyres and wheel alignment. Got 3 local quotes from Otara, Papatoetoe & Otahuhu. Advantage turned out so much more cheaper. They were awesome. Service great, experience on point and the general atmosphere was very welcoming.

    Haven't used their services before, but just had an extremely dangerous experience with one of their company vehicles on the motorway. The man was lane splitting and dangerously cutting off cars in traffic. I reckon i wont ever use the service purely from that guy.

    Loved the service very effective. When I enquire about wheel alignment. The 3 guys were Phillipines. Thank you very much. I will be back for my wheel alignment.
