Default Tyreleader - Anyone used them?

As title really. They seem very well priced with free delivery on pairs. Anyone have any experience with them?

Just ordered a pair of Michelin pilot power 3's. They were significantly cheaper than anywhere else I could see them so took a punt on this company.


The firm is German based by the looks of it but with free delivery that's no bother to me. I'll post up my experience of them once the tyres arrive. Worth mentioning you can have your chosen order delivered direct to your garage/tyre fitter of choice as well as your home address.

180/55 R17 & 120/70 R17 came in at £193.98 inc 48/72 hr delivery.


These are for the cbr. Probably cheaper for those looking at SV sizes.

Yeah £40 is about the same difference I found between this company and what Google was throwing up. Not to be sniffed at, that'll pay for the fitting to loose rims and leave some left over.

All seems good so far in terms of the order too. I got all the proper email confirmation etc when placing the order and this morning I've received a tracking number via email as well...

I've read a few reviews online of the tyres and they are very mixed, as ever. I currently run Michelin Power 2CT. The issue I get on these is the front tyre cliffs off, due to me not commuting/riding on DC/motorway to wear them down.
