Question

Title says it all really!
I'm looking to get a new set next week (205/50/16)
Anyone know where the best place to go is? I'm close to M1 junction 22, don't mind travelling up to 40 miles or so. I'd sooner use a decent fitter who will balance them properly, won't damage my alloys, etc, and ideally, check my suspension geometry as well. Any help mucho appreciated!
Cheers
Leigh

Try TSL in the first instance. They should be able to address your geometry needs, can get you good deals on tyres and are just up the road.

Hi ther, Try Tyre Northampton on 01604 588599, ask for Mark or Malc.

good service and seem cheep, i paid £ 80.00 eachincl VAT and fitting.

There are different typres of F1's, the directional ones are the kiddies, TGN are about 5 miles from M1 J15

No connection with TN!

Try these dude, a quick phonecall, 0115 9234567. Come to you in a high tech lorry thing, do all the balancing and stuff and guarantee to beat the best quote you have had.

Might be worth just getting the tyres from them and then taking them to Trouser and co. for the geometry stuff and a now legendary TSL brew
