When I check mytyres.net (assume that is the correct URL) it lists the Goodyear as £98. Can u haggle a price or have they just gone up?

Maybe they are adding some for delivery? That price should include all vat and delivery costs. Where have you seen them cheaper then?

Cool

The price can vary from time to time, must be due to supply and demand I suppose.

I got my GSD-3's for 86 each delivered.

Someone posted on here say there got there Toyo proxes for 68 quid each yet the next day they were 80 odd.

Mine took a little while to be delivered, but I had a confirmation e-mail, confirming the order and then a further e-mail confirming the date of delivery. They were delivered as planned.

I was a little concerened cos of the delay and I contacted them my e-mail using the webiste and they responded with the delivery mail.

There's been a few people on this BBS who have bought tyres from mytyres and I haven't heard of any problems.

Although I'm not quite sure of there 24 hour delivery statement.

Folks

I just received my tyres from mytres.net today. I can't thank them enough for such a speed delivery and the cheapest anywhere in Scotland!

I also must thanks Scoobynet for letting me know that this company existed in the first place.

Cheers

A very happy chappy Gordon Shek

Hi all i ordered 2 bridgestones for my MY02 and got them about 5 days later.If you look at the web site when ordering your tyres you will see most of the sizes have 3 stars at the the side of them which means there is up to a week for delivery.Most of the tyres they dont stock so cant deliver next day as most of the tyres come from germany

Ordered some new Toyos on Thursday. Was told on the phone (by a european sounding gal) they might take 3weeks. No problem for me. Confirmation email said a week. They arrived today (Tuesday). Impressed by the speedy delivery and the price simply can't be beaten.

A few weeks ago there was a post for a supplier. Who was it? I printed this out and have since lost it. Need 225/40 ZR18 x 4 off. And Soon. Was looking at new GY BSD3's or ??? I have two full sets of wheels + a spare rim (yes thats nine wheels all in). Originals were P Zero Rosso's, then got new set of wheels with Proxies on. Different as chalk and cheese. Now want to find a tyre that has grip of Proxies with Steering/precision of PZeros.... All comments gratefully received.

PS Not forgetting that suspension setup makes a hell of a difference to tyres and how they can perform. It is the Whole Nine Yards that counts....

Had my GSD-3's fitted today, took a while but my car was off the road for 6 weeks getting the rear corner rebuilt after I got hit.

Straight away I could notice the difference between these and my old potenza's that were shagged.

Oh, and they look the b0ll0ox as well!!!

Very good website for tyres.

They will deliver tyres (free of charge) within 24 hours (subject to availability), to a fitting station of either your choice or they will recommend one near you.

I've just ordered the new out Eagle F1 GSD-3 (215-45-17) - 90 quid a corner incl VAT and free delivery nationwide, they've been delivered and I'm going to get them fitted tomorrow.

Very good service and responsive to order and delivery quieries.
