    Get out the yellow pages and ring round the local one-man band places. Don't go anywhere near Kwik Fit and the likes! When you ring, give them the sizes and tell them you want a budget brand. They're basically all the same anway as they have to comply to the same safety ratings.

    My brother used these people, they were cheap and they came to his home and fitted them

  • Have a ring round a few suppliers in your area let them know your best price and if they want your business they'll beat it :)

    I know, I used to work in a tyre/exhaust shop :D

    Good luck

    Hello nishaagar

    I'll move your thread over to the 'Motoring & Public Transport' board.

    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. If you have any questions about this policy please email [EMAIL="abuse@moneysavingexpert.com"]abuse@moneysavingexpert.com[/EMAIL].

    Regards

    costco are doing 20% off michelin tyres , if you buy 4 of them.
    Brings the price of my tyres down from around £70 from mytyres , etc down to around £50 inc valve, balancing and fitting

    I hear that Costco are pretty cheap for tyres too, but haven't been there myself yet.

    Do ring around a bit though.
