Hi all,

Looking to get some new tyres.
Based on the info in this thread I've come up to the Dunlop LM704 available at Tyre Clinic for $575.

Any reviews?

anyone ever used Evergreen tyres? Got them at Jack's for $700 a piece. They said it's made by Michelin in China. Anyway have them on for almost a month now and can say these are really smooth driving, quiet tyres. Really impressed with how great they drive. Also has great traction in both dry and wet ... have cornered at speeds that would make my previous Dunlops squeal or slip. Supposed to last at least 50,000kms and I get free rotation and balance every 3 months from Jack's.

If these tyres go the distance then I'll believe they are Chinese Michelins.

Tyre question. About every two months I most likely get a screw or nail in one of my tyre. One tyre shop simply plug the tyre, whereas another shop, take out the tyre and apply a patch from the inside.

What is your guys views about these two procedures?

For me plugging saves both time and money.
