Best place for tyres? recommendations
Right looking at ordering some tyres soon. Just been on internet and found mytyres.co.uk are the cheapest so far followed by blackcircles. Comparing most of the brands on each site and there is quite a bit of difference from some companies to others.
Can anyone recommend a good place to get tyres from/fitted.
If people had the choice of Proxes, dunlop, yoko's or falken what would they go for on a daily runner that doesnt get raced about???
*sorry if this is wrong section

Proxes are only a couple of quid more expensive but as you said safety comes first! Just trying to find the best deal!

Cheers. Going to look into ordering some proxes or Maybe some falken tyres(had them on my fiesta, really good grip and looked smart)
Was there much of a delivery charge?

I had Toyo's on my old Saxo and I would recommend them again for sure.
I'm still on the Michelin Pilots at the moment.

when ordering from mytyres the delivery charge is included in the price of the tyre, just double check though on their site to be on the safe side
