    175/60/15 sounds like a Nissan Micra tyre. There are very few choices available. My Mum has a Micra and the best price I found was lovely old Kwik-Fit who didn't try to sell new dampers, exhaust etc this time!

    Ha ha you are correct I do indeed have a Micra and never having had to buy tyres for it before was surprised at how little choice there is.

    I think it's reasonable to assume that this will be a 'marketing expression', rather than a totally free tyre.

    I'll let you know when I get mine changed.

    ...and am not due an MOT

    The MOT offer would have stood for your next MOT, whenever in the next 12 months it is due. So it's a valid offer for anyone with a car over two years old.

    Hope you're happy with your new tyres :).
