Nice one Mark, cheers for that. Very tempted as I've got a contact that will fit and balance 4 tyres for £20.
Sorted!!!!

Cool

Both these types of tyres will HELP sell the car as they are top brands (I am a Toyo fan). Anyone who knows looking at the car will appreciate this, a top car needs top tyres!

Scoobyfella, i could send you a copy/fax of the invoice if that would help.

Edited to say, if he says "Prove it and i can match it" then he knows he can do that price but he just wants to check your not pulling a fast one.

Let him ring the number and speak to steve, he'll remember doing them for me on my impreza.
