Understand this tyre

What the size on the sidewall means255/35 R18
255 · Width
The tyre is 255 mm wide, measured sidewall to sidewall.
35 · Profile
Sidewall height is 35% of the width — a low profile, giving sharper steering response.
R18 · Rim

If you drive a performance car, the Pilot Sport 4 is aimed at you. Michelin's Dynamic Response Technology is claimed to sharpen steering precision and responsiveness, while a hydrophobic silica compound and wide grooves are designed for strong wet braking and grip. The brand also points to fuel efficiency and extended tread life. Note: it sits in the premium price bracket across the sizes we track.

    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.
