    I won't use Tyre-Shopper again.

    Price was great but they insisted on using National Tyres as the fitting centre who clearly didn't want to do the work. I had no end of trouble with them trying to get mine fitted, they came up with excuse after excuse about why they wouldn't fit them.

    Another forum I am part of claimed to know a fitter in one. they only make £15 per tyre, vastly less than they make by supplying and fitting their own.

    It took them over two and a half hours to change four tyres on my car, and mine was the only one in the workshop with four mechanics working.

    Always go for blackcircles myself...I always try to shop around (just to get the best price, never had any issues with BC), but they always wind up cheapest in the end.

    I just ask my local tyre place if they can match Black Circle's price. So far, they have every time.

    Meh, fair enough if it's more convenient...But I'd rather reward the place that is cheap in the first place...:)

    Tyre shopper is owned by National.

    But like what has been said, garages can usually price match. I know my local garages charge same for the cheaper tyres that Blackcircles charge and no ordering and waiting.
