Just want to thank them for making me a delighted customer.
Was there today and got 4 Toyo Proxes T1-S (215/40/17zr)fitted for £340.00 That's £85.00 per corner! Job done within an hour as well

Other prices I was quoted were:

Kwik-Fit - £480.00 = £120 each
National - £416.00 = £104 each
Jim Dickson - £376.00 = £94 each
Subaru Falk - £360.00 = £90 each
SKIDZ - £340.00 = £85 each

Ok some of the above Companies may have done a price match but why should you give them your trade??? If I hadn't done my homework they would have robbed me of a lot of money!
Keep up the good work SKIDZ.

Cheers

I wonder how many phone calls skidz get , from the big companies having to price match over the next few weeks.

Not a bad price, but mytyres are doing the same rubber for £74.30.
£297.20 for a set isn't to be sniffed at!

Even when you add the fitting cost, still a saving.

Wonder if Skidz will price match mytyres?

T-UK, As mentioned at the bottom of my post, I hope people give the trade to Companies like Skidz. The ones that are giving you a fair deal to start with and not selling over inflated prices(no pun intended)with the intention of ripping us off! Why should the overpriced Companies get the trade. Three cheers for the underdog.

Opelcorsa, Doing good thanks. Been quiet cos I was planning a bank job to cover the costs of tyres had I gone to one of the dearer CompaniesHow u keeping yourself? Is that what u mean with hush hush?

Chrisyd, ye am hoping for a few years out them. U back in the UK yet? Dunno what's happening these days with the meets. Dougster is now a moderator and regional organiser. There was a meet last Month down at Kilmarnock that seemed to be successful and he is arranging a few other events like Karting and rolling road that are being combined as mini meets. Will need to speak with him soon and see if he can arrange something at Legs & Co or Truffles

Trance, Doing good thanks. How's you?

Talizman, Doh! I never thought about them Mind you,I've done business with Skidz before and can't fault them so that might make me feel a tad better for the extra pennies.

Finally, sorry it's taken me until today to reply guys. I put the post up before the footy and never got a chance to get on line till now....

Cheers

Back home til january, need to get a wee meet sorted out with the usual lads, maybe head out some sunday for pub lunch somewhere then organise a chrimbo night out in town.

Chrisyd,

That idea sounds like it's got potential... Any suggestions dates/times etc?

I read on one of the Edinburgh posts that some of them fancied coming to Glasgow for a night out, so we could perhaps combine something?

As for the old style meets, I stopped doing a post cos I simply didn't have the time to arrange them properly. Dougster does the arranging in this area now cos he's old and has the time to do it

Dougster, fancy taking this topic on board and sorting out a meet and/or a night in Glasgow for the troops??
