Can't see some of the prices being honoured but just ordered up 4 18" contis for £120. Pirelli also look stupidly cheap.

Worth a try

I ordered 4x 255 35 20 Pirellis for £218 and they've taken the payment from me. I doubt I'll get anywhere with it but it was worth a try.

ContiSportContact 5s for half the price of Nankangs. That's bloody keen!

Doubt they'll be honouring any of those sales. biggrin

Earlier I ordered 2 x Uniroyal Rainsport 3 94Y XL (255/35/18) for £68 delivered.

Apparently someone on another forum has already had their order cancelled though so fully expecting this to be the case with others.

Just ordered:

4 x 18" Pzero GT
4 x 18" Pzero
4 x 20" Continental (staggered)
8 x 19" Michelin Pilot Supersport

...all orders have been confirmed via email and money seems to have left my account... so fingers crossed, but it looks promising so far. smile


Cheers,
Grant

The Pirelli tyre for my Mini has apparently been reduced from £400 to £51.

I paid ~£100 for one from them last year..

Goodyear F1s £28.20 each
Pirelli P Zero Nero £29.50


Could be that have a lot of stock to clear and prices are legit. Or someone has fked up.

Sadly no cheap deals on tyres I actually want.

And you're the reason why things like this are spotted and cancelled. Order one set, let everyone reap the benefits.

Orders like this are probably what highlights the glitches in the first place.

I doubt my order of 4 x 17" sportcontact5s for £207 fitted will be honoured, but we will see

I reckon it was someone got the sack yesterday, and a play about with the price matrix was their parting gift. Either that or they are about to go under and need an injection of sales-cash, I hope everyone is buying on c/card!

Chill out, do you not think that my order(s) will be rather insignificant compared to tyre suppliers or bedroom traders who have spotted the glitch and are requesting mountains of tyres in one hit?!

I'm sorry for ruining the lives of the anonymous people who may/may not know about this deal, but they're not all for me and if I can share the discounts with friends and family, then I will and I won't be apologising for that fact. They're certainly not being bought so that I can sell on for a profit either, unlike a lot of people probably do.

- The first three sets are for family members, contained in one order.

- Then a single order for a set of MPSS for my Golf... followed by another order when I realised how cheap they were and decided that, if honoured, this was roughly 25-30% of the price they would be normally so couldn't really resist; which I agree was a bit greedy.

Was just chatting to my work colleague, and I reckon they're going under.
There are too many tires at ridiculous prices to make me think it's a pricing error.

I'm looking at the MPSS for my GTi next, do you reckon they add much over the Pilot Sport 3 or 4? They seem to be about £40 each more.

High end products like Davanti don't get discounted, it's like buying a Bentley.

Just ordered 2 MO1 rears for my SL63 thinking I should get another 2 rears for this price, two for less than the price of one. No front tyres in my size/spec though.

Obvious pricing error. I'd be amazed if anyone gets a set. Good luck.

Doesn't look like it's carried over to bike tyres, shame as I'm about to order a new pair for mine.
