I am changing the rear tyres on my E63 as I just don't like the Pirelli P Zeros that are fitted that give little grip in the cold and wet. I have decided on Goodyear F1 Asymmetric 5's and Camskill are coming out with the best price for a pair of 285x30x19 rear tyres. I'd say there are around 4mm+ left on the Pirelli's so if anyone wants a pair of part worns really cheap, let me know.

I have checked almost all the online sellers including Black Circles, Tyreleader, MyTyres, Oponeo, Pneus, Lovetyres, Valuetyres, Tyresonthe drive, F1 Autocentre, National Tyres etc etc and Camskill come out with the best price and are based in the UK.

I'm not starting this thread for a discussion (again;)) on the pro's and con's of other brands, my mind is set on the Goodyears, but if anyone has some feedback on using Camskill it would be appreciated before I order them.
Thanks

Used them a few times now and never had any issues. Good comms and prompt delivery in my experience.

Don't know yet Nigel. Once they have been removed and I've inspected them for any damage I'll have an idea.
Won't be much anyway.

You'll have first call on them.

I’ve been very impressed with my Goodyear’s on the E320cdi, but your thread prompted a quick Camskill search and I can get some Nexen Nfera for £62 , anyone used these ? (Apologies quick thread hijack , but it looked like you were done anyway :rolleyes:)

So far I’ve checked Camskill prices loads but never used them as the prices have never been the cheapest- probably I’m always looking at strange ones....
Hear they’re good though

Roger ignore both posts above - looking at wrong Camskill deal- doubt that could be beaten for assy 5s!

Yep, had them in the 211 wighty, good for grip for general motoring and last a good 25k before the inside edges had worn (my fault for not having the rear end tracked for a while).

Thanks for your comments all. Going with Camskill at £155 per tyre + £13 fitting at my local tyre fitter. Unfortuntely he couldn't get anywhere near that price for the Goodyears.
