always cheaper, www.mytres.co.uk prices include delivery

then just take them to your local tyre place, expect top ay £30-40 to get them all fitted and balanced

 

BTW AP tyres in Rotherham will sell you the same tyres as mytyres at a cheaper rate when you include fitment.

hahahahaha

sorry gary, I live 1 minutes walk away from them and they have never been anywhere close to the price of mytyres when I've phoned up and asked even after paying top whack for fitting

 

www.camskill.co.uk

My brother has bought from there and so has a guy I work with, can't help with where to get them fitted though as we fit them ourselves.

AP are sometimes cheap and sometimes expensive. (usually cheap when you phone for a quote or expensive if you turn up in a shiney car). They are close to where I work and I don't use them anymore. I prefer the blokes at canklow tyres. Very friendly and helpful and cheap too. (puncture - well a leaky valve stem cost me under a fiver to fix last week). They have also fitted a load of tyres I bought on mytyres site for me. They couldn't match the price even when fitting was added on at top whack.

 

As for buying on the net then mytyres are good but their courier is carp. Only after making investigations myself I found out that their courier hadn't even been bothered to post a ticket throguh my door and they'd been sat at the depot for over a week.

 

i use kilnhurst tyres for fitting, get thr tracking done free aswell once they're fitted

 

Mytyres are great, although I think their prices vary quite a lot . . . I paid £30 per tyre for Goodyear Eagle F1's 195/45/15 in June last year, and now they are over £50. I'd use them again like a shot, as the postage was very quick - got them within 3 days. And they are definitely cheaper than the same tyres from Kwik-fit!

 

I've bought 2 sets off Ebay from tyre sellers cheaper than any of these Tyre shops on the net and that includes the above which were selling my last tyre £15 more per tyre than what I paid.

I have no problem with buying tyres from sellers who have shops on Ebay as they simply pass the cost savings on to you rather than having to fund a website.
I've had no problems and got a real bargain with the tyres I bought and got them within a couple of days.
You can get almost any tyre you want from Ebay cheaper than most places. Always worth a look first.

They have always been cheaper for the tyres i buy (215/45/17) usually Goodyear Eagle F1 GSD3's than mytyres. Mytyres charge £91.70 + fitting. AP charged me £92 each inc fitting.

My dad's puma also is cheaper than mytyres (when you factor in fitting) they buy Goodyear Eagle NCT5.

 

I buy my tyres from a local wholesaler - very cheaply!

 

Don't know if you live near a Costco wholesale (search the net for your nearest).

I went to the one in Watford this Sunday and bought 4 top range tyres, fitted and balanced (can't recall the name) at nearly 50% the price of Kwick Fit (£60 versus £118 each). You do have to become a member at £25pa, but car batteries are much cheaper as well. I've saved about £300 alone on car tyres and batteries this year.

Costco are michelin only and yes they are very cheap. The batteries also come with a 4 year warrenty. It's probably the Primacy tyre you got which in my opinion are very good tyres. They also only charge you £2 + vat to fit and balance your tyres.

P.S. It's not obvious who I'm a tyre fitter for is it? lol

 

They're just opening a Costco on Sheffield Parkway near Makro.

The good thing with Costco tyre bays is that we are all fully trained by Michelin. You don't get near a car unless you have got your Michelin certificate. So you know you wont just be getting any idiot doing your wheels like most other places.

On the down side we have some weird rules that we must stick to, like new tyres to the rear only (unless they are a different size) and we will only fit what is coming off, unless you bring your wheels in loose.

I thought abour getting tyres off the net, but a lot of the places I approached to fit them said they wouldn't fit tyres they had not sourced themselves.. (and made a huge markup on.. )

 

I have used mytyres.co.uk and valuetyres.co.uk before, I did find that the Goodyear Ventura's that I was looking for at the time were around 60% cheaper per tyre on mytyres than anywhere near me, hence they got the order and local place fitted and balanced and disposed of old rubber for £5 per corner.

 

Tyres

Useful (maybe) article in this weeks Auto Express covering ONLY buying tyres on the net with and without fitting. 2 sizes, 15" and 17" using Michelin Primacy and ContiSportContact2 respectively

That is not a wierd rule, it is called safety. New tyres should be fitted to the rear.

Get a price off the net nd then try a few a local places and see if they will match. Nearly always get a price matched or bettered around here.

 

black circles - used to use local garage but blac circles are cheaper and the same garage fits for them and he gets a better deal out of it

I've always heard that too, but does it matter whether the car is FWD or RWD?
