    That's an amazing price for two fitted.

    Please let us know how you get on.

    Keith have you used these before as I am about to book them but ive asked around and no one i know has heard of them?
    They are so cheap and also offer a free puncture repair service for the life of the tyre.
    Seems so good that i wonder why more people dont use them...

    Yes I have used them. Book one day, they come the next. Very happy with their service.

    I have also tested their free puncture feature, but unfortunately my tyre wasn't repairable.

    Used them a couple of times now latest being 2 weeks ago.

    First time they cocked up the balancing of the wheels, but a quick call and the fitter was very apologetic. My Mrs was over at her friends at the time and the guy came over to rebalance them while she was having a coffee. He then called her back a few hours later to check she was happy with them.

    I would recomend them and the prices are keen, although not as cheep as they were a few years back, but still amongst the best

    I used E-Tyres recently and also some years ago. They beat the local tyre place by 20% so I stopped doing comparisons - a pair of 155/70/13/T for a small hatchback - Firestones - at £82 fitted but I got a 5% discount thru my employer. The convenience of them visiting the workplace is massive.

    Features of the service:

    - They have you witness the final torquing of the nuts & sign that you saw it!

    - You get free puncture repairs ever after for you & the family. The trick is that if it is not legally repairable (the hole is outside of a certain quite strict zone on the tread) then they try & sell you a tyre that they will have brought along.

    - They have wheel balancing equipment in the van.
