Apologies I haven’t introduced myself before, though owning a Cali Ocean for 2 years - called Phoebe.
Never had any issue up until now – apart from leisure battery running down after 4 days on the driveaway though that seems to be cured now after may trips and investigations by Breeze in Poole.
Just had an MOT – passed ok – but they noticed front tyres tread depth ok but “shredded” . Not sure what that meant till they showed me – chunks of rubber missing. We do drive onto campsites (naturally) and we do park up in some New Forest enclosures where tracks can be stony. But think the state of our roads and potholes must take some blame.
Anyway Breeze have offered replacements (at an ok price) from Falken. The originals are Goodyear Vector Cargo. I’m a bit reluctant to change to a make I’ve never heard of.
Anyone have these on their Cali – if so you happy with them? Are they better / as good as / worse than Goodyears?
Many thanks for any insight.
