Tyre Websites NLC

Post by mrbennybennett » Thu May 30, 2013 10:12 am

Gents

What the best place for mail order tyres these days? - I need to order some tyres for the GF's Mini Cooper as its time to get rid of the run flats

I know of Camskill, but any others worth considering?

Cheers

Camskills or blackcircles are my usual hunting ground as a starting point :thumbsup

I use MyTyres.co.uk

I usually get the tyres delivered to the fitters and get the fitting included in the price.
You can read reviews of local fitting stations and it also tells you what sizes of tyres they have the equipment to fit, then you just pick the one you'd prefer.
Prices are normally competitive.

She is getting the alloys refurbed at PPE in loanhead first so they will be fitting the new tyres at the same time so that side of it is sorted

Black Circles user here - normally find they are cheaper than other on-line sellers, probably due to the fact that they let you accrue points so you can normally get £10 off a pair of tyres if you have ordered from them before and that is often what takes their price lower. :thumbsup
