Car Tyre fitting and balancing

Toddy

Hi,

I purchased my tyres off the internet to save money but now face the reality of being ripped off to have them fitted.

Any tips on which chain of tyre fitters/distributors do good deals on fitting and balancing?

I am in the Peston area.
Best so far is £15 per wheel.

Thx

Toddy

On the 'MyTyres' website down the right-hand side in the fitting service companies there is a link to 'fitter'.

Depends how you approach it, try a local garage instead of a high street name and chances are one of them will do it as a cash in hand job. Just be subtle in your approach.

I get a guy in my local National Tyres to do it for £30 per set of 4, including balancing.

Hello Toddy

I'll move your thread over to the 'Motoring & Public Transport' board, where it should get more views and responses.

Hi, Martin’s asked me to post this in these circumstances: I’ve asked Board Guides to move threads if they’ll receive a better response elsewhere(please see this rule) so this post/thread has been moved to another board, where it should get more replies.

National Tyres did 2 of mine at £10 per tyre with valve and balancing.

As suggested MrTyres mobile service is excellent as is the smallish garage chain of www.topgear.co.uk - see if theres one in your area.

Juat phone around and get some quotes, you should be looking at £8 to £10 for a strip and refit and balance and some places will charge a quid for scrapping the old tyres.
