Gratz on the new Tyres, can I ask why the rears were sooo much more?
I am guessing you are running different sizes than the front however must be a fair difference in size given price difference?

Also Z1's would have been Better :P

I have 18 x 8.5 on the front with 235 -40 tyres and the rear has 18 x 9.5 with 265 -35 tyres...so hence the rears being dearer....I just went with what they gave me,didn't know there were Z1's...lol...oh well I'm happy with the ones I got....lol

I Guess in this case Size Does Matter :

The V1's have good reviews also so Don't worry & Enjoy
