Any where. All the places I can think of are charging too much.

215/40/17 * 4

Vinesh, OK, it's not Leicester but it may be worth the journey - Motorsport Wheels in Leeds fitted me a set of Toyo T1-s Proxes in 215/40R17 for around 305 quid all in, including VAT, balancing, fitting, new valves, ... (65+VAT each).

They have a depot and tyre fitting place in Birmingham according to their website? http://www.mswuk.com - may be worth a look or a phonecall?

Failing that, Tyres Northampton are a couple of miles off Junction 16 on the M1 which ain't a bad journey - they're about 99 quid a wheel (including VAT).

Finally, Scoobyworld could mail out some Toyos to you at 67+VAT each, but you'd need someone to balance and fit, and dispose of your old tyres. (20 quid a corner seems to be the going rate)

No connection with either group...

...and I *really* like these tyres Bit noisy, but good grip and very progressive when they let go. Better than Pzeros by a long way IMHO, but a bit noisier.

B'ham - I'm going there in the weekend. Will give them a ring.

Chairk,

How long has it been since u had ur new tyres?

Want to know, incase the B'ham depot asks me.

I got 'em two weeks ago - 16th May... Good luck!

Chairk,

I rang Wheelmania and they qouted me £340 going to have it done there.

Motorsport wheels qouted me £305, but they are not open on weekends. Which means I will have to travel back to b'ham on Wednesday. Works out the same if u consider the petrol and finding the place.

cheers.

Cool. Glad u got it sorted.

Why not be cheeky and ask Wheelmania to price match? Or at least move their prices a bit

I tried that, but they did not budge. Oh well got some new rubber now.

So u got toyos did u Vinesh? I went up Nottingham way, via Leicester, 2 get proxes which worked out at about £400 all in with a wrench that'd fit da nuts & wheels, balancing, alignment funky friendly non air stuff etc. So if u managed 2 get em cheaper in brum i'm guna have to cry
Anyway good luck then m8

(keep yer eye on the midlands section 4 da next cov type meet & me seeing if any1 wants any NF as i'm guna stick another order soon so more ppl = cheaper same for miller motorsport 10W:40 fully synth oil i shall order soon also)

Just out of interest Vinesh, did you try Jeff Fowkes Wheels in Ibstock? I got a set of 17" Prodrive golds with P-Zero rubber for £450 plus my old 16's.

Didn't like the gold too much, so got them re-conned to silver.

scooby_si,

I paid £340 at Wheelmania. I got these from Leicester. Got some Toyo Proxes T1-S

Motorsport Wheel qouted me £305 all in. But they are not open in the weekend.

Chod,

I tried Jeff, but a bit pricey, £96 per corner. Which part of leicester u from?

Not actually from Leicester im a nuneatonian but given the No. of Leicester types that kum 2 da cov area meets u will get sucked in 2 kum join us u no u wana
Damn u getting things cheaper & more local than me i think i shall have 2 demand sum of these mods i keep seeing u posting about i think u have far too many LOL
Si

Si,

U banger

The lads at Wheelmania are from ur hometown.

**** stop it i'm guna cry now they weren't on da toyo web site
Si

When i rang all the Toyo dealers around Leicester, there prices were £20/30 higher than Wheelmania.

The Toyo dealers would not price match.

U should have done some ringing around.

I rang all the buggers i kud find local in da yellow pages (but seemed 2 miss the cheapest) & all even remotely local types on da toyo site so stop gloating or i shall sulk lol
Si

u should have used www.yell.co.uk Much better than the paper back version.

Ha u c i have got sumin better than u................
The ability 2 post links yellow shouldn't u clean it then sir lol.
Cheers anyway then
Si

Vinesh

I live about 4 miles from Jeff Fowkes. How about you?

Terry

PS Please go to a Cov meet, if only to shut Si up! I tagged along at the back to the Big One with the Cov types, very friendly bunch.

I'm usually very shy & quiet
