What tyres did you go for in the end Steve, can't remember?

The existing ones don't look terrible, still noticeable decent tread pattern at the edges, probably no advisories there yet I'd imagine.

You'll have them on, just in nice time to get them bedded in and at optimal grip levels for Stelvio likely

I went for Continental Sport tyres Jim and had them delivered to the Wheel Specialist ready to fit after the refurb. £880 delivered.

Edit : the old tyres are minimum tread depth.

Looking good there Steve, you’ll be pleased to have her back!

Always liked Continentals, good choice.

Save time, money and hassle having it all done at once, not your first rodeo

An expensive time,, Steve, though the extra rubber will be needed for that trip.

That’s good to hear, just stay away from old men driving Skodas.

... or other X351s!

Good choice! It's the tyre of choice for HRG. On her second full set now.

It was the tyre of choice for me too, but they were out of stock and I was in a hurry!

Very nice Steve. First a new frock, now new shoes, she’s all set for the ball.

 

[Glenn65]

it’ll be hard to make her look any nicer now!

Just servicing left to do now Glenn.

Cheers Jim, the wheels look much better in real life than the photos.

Definitely look the business Steve... will see them at Shuttleworth and hopefully they'll still be looking good by the time the Cotswolds comes around!

I thought it best to have a 4 wheel alignment done since i have brand new tyres and recent suspension work.

I thought it was quite reasonable at £48.

Edit : no idea why the photo is upside down lol.
