  • Been shopping online for 2 front tyres.
    Did a bit of research
    http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/accessories-tyres/92873/all-season-tyre-test-20172018-results-by-category

    Checked prices for nearly all fitters etc.

    Best Price for my choice of Michelin was Kwik Fit, also says you can get free mobile fitting for 2 or more tyres.

    Best price per tyre by at least £10. also freebie winter care kit when ordered online
    https://www.kwik-fit.com/offers/michelin-winter-kit-offer and CB from Q 3.5%TCB 3.28%

    Still just about £100 each :eek: but as car is the newest I have ever had, I want to make sure I get th best I can.

    Hope this can help others who may be looking for tyres.

    Also you normally get your receipt in a wee booklet that sometimes has money off stuff in it. I know the staff at my local and have always had good service from them.
    Thanks for that, thought I didn't recognise the name.... Nearest centre 218 miles away :). Kwik fit a couple of pounds cheaper and then the CB and freebie.

    have you tried blackcirles also do tcb

    Black Circle are poor value nowadays weheras they always used to be the 'go to' place.

    Cheapest way to get tyres - get 6-10 online quotes - deduct 20% from the lowest quote - ring the online/other fitters and ask them to match the 20% deducted quotes - 9/10 you'll get one to match YOUR price with little haggling as there are big mark ups on tyres.

    quoting dave mortons
    I fancy giving it another try, but I only have one account that I can set up on it, and thats the one I used. My other accounts are Starling bank and Barclays, and neither are listed as being able to use on the droid app :(


    you can use the same card just need a different phone ie pixi 3 for £4.99 to load account onto then transfer to nfc phone and different gmail address :)

    Im getting so confused with this...I successfully used ap and that finished end of dec...DH messed his ap account up last week so I thought I would give it a go..but im not very tecky.
    I have my phone which is not nfc, so downloaded ap added card, then went on the phone I had already used, removed original card set up new gmail added card got authorisation code thru card on phone but no envelopes...what have I done wrong?

    Had a thought, I could set it up on my mates phone, then just transfer it over to mine from that.

    Hey guys!

    Haven't been on here for a long time. Been so busy with university.

    Hope everyone is well.

    P.S. Can someone please explain what AP is? Seems like some app?
