Having a bad run. By the looks of it, the tyre is due for replacement anyway. So it's not so bad

N5000s will wear heaps longer and are much quieter, also with good water drainage. I've got Nexens on both Fords N7000 on the SR (N7000 are now superceeded now by N5000) and N6000 on the wagon (N6000 are much softer and have better grip - but will not last as long). I'm very happy with both lots and look forward to getting the N5000s on the SR in the next month or so. GK

Kris, You could get them for $125 at a place over your side of town. Can't remember where though, sorry! $133 is what I can get them for in Essendon. I would rather pay $125, but I'm not going to drive East for an hour to save $32! LOL! Might look for a bit cheaper price though. Then again, that price ($133) was obtained via email, and I haven't been in yet to haggle a bit. Glad you like the tyres UK. GK
