Hi AndySpecD,

Have looked over our prices and can beat the £72 on the GYs. Can you PM me so we can arrange a discount voucher on the site to get you the price?

Cheers

Travis

Hi Roy M.

Interesting point about seeing tyres for two axels where the tyres are different.

We probably couldn't do this all on one screen as it would A. get a bit unweildly on some sizes and B possibly a bit ambiguous as many tyres will be duped on the screen with only the size text to differentiate them... However...
What we could do is tab the top of the results with 'Front' and 'Rear' tabs that you could quickly flick between.

What do you think?

Cheers

Travis
That would help but ideally I'd like to put in both sizes and see what my options are for a matching tyre set - no good finding Continentals for the front if I can't get the rears to match for example (and yes I do replace all four at once)

Hi Travis,

Good work on the partnership. I've used tyre giant previously and the service was pretty good to be honest. They even price matched for me.

I'm in the market for some new front tyres. 225/35/19 88Y .

Camskill doing them for less than £270 delivered for some continental R02

Anything you can do to bring the price down via your site? Currently showing as £290 delivered or £312 fitted.

Wouldn't mind getting them fitted at HAC too so hoping you can do something?

Many thanks.

Evening c002090 - I have limited access to what I need to get this sorted for you until I am back in on Monday morning, but I can tell you I can do you a deal on these. Should save you approx £10 per tyre delivered smile

Are you OK to wait until Monday am for this?

Cheers

Travis

Hey Travis.

Cheers for response. That would be really good mate cheers. How about a discount on a fitted price? Is that something you're able to do too? Wouldn't mind just getting them fit all at same time.

Last time tyre giant provided a 10% off code which was awesome, but doesn't work now frown

Ive had a look at a couple of other popular tyre sites and they're even better than camskill. Hoping you can beat these too smile

£128.79 Delivered

Hi Travis,

Could you recommend tyres for my 306 Rallye? The standard size is 195/55R15, and I'm currently running Bridgestone Potenza RE002 in that size.

Typical weekly usage is 80mi motorway and a few short trips round town. The remainder of the 10k/yr is mostly enthusiastic A and B road driving, and a week or two in Europe.

Thanks,
Charlie

Morning Gents,

c002090 - Don't worry will sort you out smile Drop me a PM mate and I'll email you Monday am smile

bitwrx - Had a quick search online and found a couple of owners mentioning good experiences with Dunlops - I can do a good deal on Fast Response. I expect I will be pretty keen on the Bridgestones you are currently running too. Drop me a PM so I have your email address and I will send you some prices on Monday morning smile

Cheers

Travis

Another one here with a plate that's not coming up with anything...

But I'm after 225/75 16 (speed and load unimportant) winters - series Landy, on 7" Disco steels. TyreLeader start at £60 for Chinese rubbish, with the worthwhile stuff starting at Cooper Discoverer M+S2s for £80 plus pocket lint. Your best is £124... What can you suggest?

May be of interest - ordered my tyres from Tyreleader on 48 hour delivery. 5 days later still waiting, no tracking info and no response to questions. Will be using Travis next time!!

And received, ta.

Thanks to Roy for the TyreLeader warning - Oponeo are within pennies of them. Unfortunately, Dopamine can't sort anything comparable, so may well go that way. Thanks for trying, though.

Hi TooMany2cvs,

Didn't fancy any of the GYs? There were a couple of winter options there that were pretty good?

The ATs were tempting - but I think I'm leaning towards road-biased winters. We live up a steep hill in the middle of nowhere on the Welsh border, and it came on a set of big chunkies which'll be kept for if I want to do summer mud. It's a good discount on the site price for the winters, but still 25% more than the Coopers (I've had consistently good experiences with Avons, so I'm not averse to trying Coopers) - and I think the difference between T and H speed rating might be a bit unnecessarily optimistic for a 34yo 70bhp Landy! <grin>

If you can get close to http://www.oponeo.co.uk/tyre-details/cooper-discov... then you've got an order for four, and that's a promise.
