Hi folks, can anybody tell me if i order the michelin exalto pe2 tyres from any tyre dealer will they be the same as the ones that renault would supply? A few people have told me that they may not. Any info appreciated. :?
tyres???????????????
who's the few people? as long as you order Exalto PE2, v rated (in the correct size i.e. 205/45 16's for the trophy they will definitely be the same, just a hell of a lot cheaper.
Dont get them from a reno stealer, :evil: , as Cue said as long as they are the correct size etc your sorted.
Just to add to that i cant believe the length of time tyres last on the Trophy compared to my FF182!
FF182, 23k till they were down to the limit.
Trophy 10k with 1mm left to the limit?
Suppose its down to the Trophy set up, i.e. the way i can go 70mph around a corner,
, instead of 50mph.
Still i dont drive like a nutter, just the same as i did in my FF182, 13k difference, WTF!!

I'm glad I'm not the only one going through them quickly. Looking at mine I have too much fun on roundabouts, the offside has an extra 1-2mm of tread over the ns. And I hope by saying 1mm limit you mean 1.6mm ?

Just checked again today and they both have about 2mm.
Why must it be 1.6mm to the limiter? I thought the reason they were there was so when the tyre becomes flush with the depth limiter you know your tyres need changing.

dunno. I think berty confused. The 'limit line' is at 1.6mm i presume. +1 = 2.6.

I am yes sorry, thought you meant actually down to 1mm, not 1mm + the depth markers, just ignore me.
