Yeah might as well get all 4, or get some Part-Worn ones second hand, Good tyres, but dirt cheap (£10 each), even if they are different they will still go through the MOT.

I really couldnt do with buying crap tyres, its what makes or breaks a car imo, buy some decent ones like eagle f1s might be a bit more money but there is a big difference
