Stupid Insurance

From looking through all the posts, this appears to be the Scooby's tyre of choice. So how cheap can you get them for? Can't see anything recent, so thought I'd see what people had come up with.

The best I've found is £79.50 delivered (Elite Direct) or £91.65 fitted (Event Tyres).

Can anyone beat that? For fitting, I'd be looking for Manchester.

Garage across the road just quoted me £165+VAT. Each.

i would say that a cracking price, i was quoted for EF1's at £115 fitted, BTW they are great tyres, hold the road really well, esp in the wet I should add that mine were 225/40/18;s

I paid just over £90 each recently, which was the cheapest I could find. Some people on here claimed to have got them cheaper at their local tyre centres, but most round me were quoting well over £100. Kwikfit are doing big discounts if you buy 4, but are very expensive to start with, so might not be that cheap. Depends what size you're looking for.

I had an intersting price of kwikfit, Quoted £135 for 215/35/18, I simply said I'd been quoted cheaper else where and asked what tehre best price was, They came back with £100 each fitted which was cheaper by miles than all others.

But we came a bit unstuck when there was no stock in the country!!! and I had to order from mytyres who were £96 each and then kwikfit fittef for £10 a corner

i just paid £105 for one just now, but that included fitting 2 tyres and balancing all 4 wheels and swapping them around. not too bad.
could have got tham for little over £90 but then i would havve had to pay around 10-15 to get them fitted and balanced.
mine are 225/40/18.
make sure you ask them to put the little plastic protector on the wheel when they pry the tyre off or it they will mark the wheels! i had to tell him after he butchered the first one trying to get it off, the second one came off ok when he used the little plastic protector and some spray to lube it a bit. (and of course they will deny it! even when your standing there watching them do it!)
but if they are a good tyre fitter they should know this before hand!
my rant over lol.

Sorry if this seems a silly question but do you have the new tyres on the front or back?

i put the new ones on the back, as from reading its better to have the good ones on the back. i would rather go head on into something than have the back let go and go sideways or backwards into something, if you get that?

Cheers for that, I get it!

is the Eagle F1 Asymmetric superseding the GSD3?

Varboy

Just paid £311 for a set of GSD3 (215/45/17) from Camskill

Cost me £50 to get them fitted though at a local garage, so that works out about £90.25 a corner which isn't too far off the quote in the OP.

Again gonna dissapoint a few people here.....100 Euro per tyre fitted.....The joys of living on the boundary between two countries ( N Ireland and Southern Ireland), btw that works out about £65 -£70 fitted depending on Euro exchange rate.....yay for something that works in our favour over here LOL
