Car Tyres

Needed a couple so tried this site:
http://www.blackcircles.com/
Best price by far, they give a fair choice of tyres, an all inclusive price and local fitting.

Called the place they use for fitting and asked for a quote, they were £20 more expensive and said could'nt match the blackcircles price!

Did a Yahoo Search for discount codes and came up with a few for 5%.

Safe Driving.

I've used blackcircles in the past and can recommend them too.

Another place to try is http://www.camskill.co.uk/

I've just bought a wheel from them at a price even blackcircles couldn't match.

Free p&p, but watch out for the £4 charge for ordering a single wheel (I have someone's onld rusty nail to thank for that). Even so, great price and delivery was quick.

I was very impressed with blackcircles. We had a puncture and needed a replacement tyre as after a puncture we were using a space saver. As they were £60 cheaper than any price I could get locally I phoned them to check on delivery. They said that they could get definitely get a tyre to the local fitter the day after next but if I put a comment in the booking they would get the fitter to phone me as soon as they recieved the tyre from blackcircles. the following day at about 09:30 I got a call saying I could take the car in after midday that day. So I got the tyre fitted next day. I was very impressed. There are deals around for an extra 5% off where existing customers are given referral links for friends and family. If anyone can't findone on this website PM me.

On www.blackcircles.com once you've selected your tyre(s) click on "promotion code" under choose your reward and enter EMP001 for a 10% discount. :T
Discount does not apply to special offer tyres.

Excuse my ignorance but who do you get to fit the tyres once they arrive. Surely a tyre place wants to supply their own tyres?

I always ask for a price for "courier" tyres. been using them for years now. they are made by perelli but their cheaper version. never ventured into buying tyres online tho

Blackcircle give you 2 options. One to supply only and you have to arrange fitting. The other option is to have it fitted at a local fitting centre, where blackcircle send them directly to the fitting centre. My local centre was about 4 miles away at a Hi-Q centre. I think, without checking on their webiste, that they have hundreds of fitting centres.

Who fits the tyres? Its all on their website:
As part of the buying process they ask you for your postcode, they then tell you who and how far away their selected tyre fitters are. On the list that I got there were 20 to select from, all reputable companies known to me.

If you choose the all inclusive option the tyres are delivered in a couple of days to your selected dealer and you make an appointment that suits.

Hope this helps

Wow. Thanks for all the info. Out of interest does anyone know how their prices for Michelin compare to Costco. Costco are very cheap normally
