Chaps, thoughts please.
Been offered 2 Avon ZZ3 Tyres 245/40 18's for FREE (only scrubbed) Tyres spec'd for my car are Michelin Pilots (B10 3.3 Alpina)
I feel it's worth putting them on to see what their like as my MOT is due soon and I have one nearly illegal front. If their no good it's only cost me the fitting charge. So what do you chaps think?? I don't drive the car hard only give it stick in a straight line....! (2 months driving a rear wheel drive car!! )
Thanks, Mark

Had some Avon's on the back of my 328ci a few years ago, was trying to save a few bucks. for the first time ever, I actually felt the difference immediatley. I took them back a couple of days later saying the handling was awful, they just pumped them up a bit harder. I got used to them after a while and convinced myself they were ok.
It was only a couple of months later, when driving some mates who were sat in the back - they said straight away that the back end felts soft and wobbly - which was exactly what i was thinking at the time.
Took the car back and got the tyres swapped for the OEM pilots and normal service was resumed.
Having said that, just fitted some avon 225's on the front of the wifes e36 325 and they seem fine.
