[W126 Coupe] Goodyear tires

[RONNY GEENEN]

Michelins have one negative aspect. When the grooves are about 60% they start to make more noise. I have Bridgestones H009. They are now about 50% and still very quiet.

  I bought some, kept them for maybe 500 miles till I took them off and went back to Michelin.  While Connies are an alternative, I still prefer the Mics.

  What is the group's opinion on Goodyear tires. Does anyone have any experience good or bad?

  Hi Folks

      Thought it was about time I replaced the leads as I am now getting a lumpy idle and have fitted new Bosch plugs three trips ago and all was fine,general concessus was that Beru were the best,but my local distributor is pushing Bremi another German brand,does the group have any thoughts on these ?.Also I have noticed only one spring in the distributor body for the advance and retard weights the local dealer cannot tell me if this is correct,apparently you cannot buy the springs just the whole assembly.

                                                                              regards Dan Gardner  1986 560 SEC Euro 220kw
