Tyres

[TEACH]

How cheap have people got a new pair for and where from. Also who to trust to fit them? Had some tyres changed on my last scoob at kwikfit and they had big dents where the machine had dug into the metal inside the wheel.

Went to my local ATS when I had a puncture and they refused to touch it saying thier machine would damage the wheels. They sent me to Pro Tyre.

133 for Conti SP3 fitted by Pro Tyre in Bristol, no tool marks on wheels. Used them twice now as I wore the fronts out. Excellent both times.

Slightly off topic, but have you got the address for Pro Tyre? I couldn't find them on the internet. Usually go to Bathwick tyres on the A4 but they wanted £70 just to fit two tyres!!

Back on topic! The cheapist I've seen is from mytyres.co.uk. I got 2 new 18" toyos for just under £200. Then paid £15 per tyre to have them fitted.

GIRLY!!! :wink:

I never get tyres done at a dealer because tyres is not what they primarily do. Therefore I feel safer going to a proper tyre place because that IS what they do and should have had plenty of experience not to damage the alloys!
