Title: tyres
Post by: rodney3010 on 22 October, 2010, 01:39:34 PM
I'm probably preaching to the converted but for those few of you who didn't realise, there is a big saving on ordering new tyres on line over going direct to your local depot. I've been looking at replacing those on my Beta Spider, 175/70 14. KwikFit quote £43 plus fitting (approx £10) for Pirelli P3000. In store £65 plus fitting. I need 4 so an approx saving of £80!

Or off me for £45 fully fitted inc vat valve ballance etc, check out independants 1st, sorry to shatter the dream but i have this conversation every day, when you get to kwik fits final price its generally conciderably more than what people like me do the same tyre for  :-\

I would agree with you Chugga.  I always use an independent tyre company in Carlisle and have found their prices unbeatable, even when compared to those internet companies who say that they cannot be beaten on price  :)

I also agree, local chap always gives me a deal (even better if you're "inthetrade")
BF Goodrich profiler 2  £40 per corner and they really work well on the Gamma.
