Does anyone know of anywhere decent to get a couple of tyres fitted. I have ordered some new ones online as they were much cheaper and just need to get them fitted for a reasonable price now. I can get rid of the old ones so no issue there. Just dont fancy getting ripped off as some places are funny about fitting tyres they have not supplied.

Cheers

If fitting to 'daily driver' wheels we use one of the dial a tyre mobile guys.
If fitting to fancy alloys we would use Vernon at 'The Wheel Specialist' Fareham. If they have just spent hours refurbishing a rim they surely know how to put the tyre back on without damage.

Tyreland in Eastleigh fitted a set of tyres I had to my alloys on the van no probs, charged me £10 a wheel all in. Protyre will also do it as they have done it for me in the past.

Always use CJH in Havant, top bunch of guys (too late for you now but they have always price matched internet for me too). They take a lot of care and pride, and know how proud people are of their wheels, and the owner has a rather nice Porsche.

Turnpike Tyres in Fareham, Simon is the man, friend of a friend, its not a million pound setup but they very good at what they do, taken my Porker there in the past and will do again. Nice and local as well, I imagine you have probably driven past them hundreds of times!

Well for convenience I went to Turnpike Tyres in Fareham as I was in Fareham to see the solicitors. They did it pretty quickly and charged me £40 to fit 3 tyres, balanced and rd me of the old ones. Not to bad.

Last time I bought two tyres fitted it cost me £220. This time I bought 3 online for £205 delivered and got them fitted for £40 so worth the extra effort to save £85.

Just for info I bought the tyres from Camskill tyres. They were £20 a tyre cheaper than the next best supplier. Delivered next day for £8.

+1 for Camskill. I got a couple of Vredesteins last year for significantly cheaper than anywhere else.

Try bestbuytyres.com too. Just picked up a couple of tyres for Mrs. Karlos's Fiesta for less than anyone else could do it, fully fitted price too.
