Thanks for the info lads………Vic, the tyre has done about 6500 miles, has about 2mm of tread left & It has “iRC” stamped on the side (which I never heard off) & it doesn’t seem to have lasted as long as the Dunlops which were standard equipment on the Innovas. On www.oponeo.co.uk I found a Metzeler ME 22 2.75-17 47 P Front/Rear TT RF: 2.75-17 47 P for £30. Will that fit?

I presume that 275/17 equates to 80/90-17 does anybody know if there is a difference in profile?

I usually replace with the original make which are “slick type” but I feel that something with a little more grip would be better for winter & off road. Any suggestions?
