Alhambra Tyres

I am having great difficulty, and indeed incuring a great deal of expense, sourcing new tyres for my Seat Alhambra 2004.

It would seem that only one manufacturer makes them - Bridgestone - and because they are classed as commercial ones, they are that little more expensive.

Does anyone know of a chearper/value for money alternative, that is recognised as being able to be put on Alhambras?

Cheers

As long as the tyres are 'extra load' or reinforced (will be clearly marked on the sidewall) they will suit. We source Tornado and Accelera tyres locally for about £47 a tyre inc vat but plus fitting and balancing.
