at last new tyres

As the previous tyres where a mixture of some used Michelin (front) and Barum (back) and the front was really slippery on wet I wanted to buy a new set for some time now, basically from the beginning but the budget has its constraints :)
After consulting with different Alfa drivers and browsing hundreds of threads on various forums the decision was that I’ll go for the Dunlop Sport Maxx 225/45/17… and today I finally got them fitted !! hooray !!

Below you can see some photos of the work in progress :)

So far I cannot tell much about the new driving experience but will do some testing over the weekend for sure. Definitely I feel much better knowing that finally I have a proper set of tyres for this fantastic Gtv.
