    lol, that sounds more like fitting price rather than tyres and fitting.

    They seem to get good reports.

    Although I did find one from a self proclaimed expert, driving his mates car to check it out for him, about how bad they were, with all the usual run down of cheap ditchfinders, and how he recommended his mate to get proper tyres.
    Apparently he was proved right, when his mates car went into the mot a few weeks later and didn't have enough tread on the tyres, and how much better the new Pirellis were.
    So at least we know brand new Pirellis are better than bald Marshal's. :)
