After suffering the VW factory fit Hankook tyres, and then at 12k miles a replacement pair of Bridgestone on the front axle, I’m delighted that at 24k miles Kwik Fit have fitted a full set of Michelin Primacy tyres.
Wet grip, road noise and general handling are far superior to both the Hankook and Bridgestone tyres at any point.
Which has got me thinking – when you take your cars to Kwik Fit to get tyres replaced under the Motability contract, do you ever get offered a choice of tyre brand, or do you always have to accept whatever Kwik Fit choose? And therefore, could you choose an All-Season tyre if you wanted them?
