Used them quite a few times in the past and never had any problems. Though there has been a mention or two on here about the 'ID' thing and how its causes problems.

Have also used Camskill very recently and found them to be excellent!
They list a few makes for your size too:

I don't suppose it matters but Avons are about £112 from camskill

my local place fits and ballences for £17 saving £60 ish for just two tyres

Edit scratch that no stock at the moment I see.

ah plus around here its £40 for the two tyres fitting and that doesnt include the insurance - free puncture repair and blow out cover....

so i think its not bad...

i hate dealing with tyre fitters as they are always trying to sell tyres not fit them..

Event Mobile Tyres.

I've never been able to beat their prices or service.

event tyres are excellent, and the home/work fit service means you'll never have to read 10 year old What Car magazines again whilst a sweating tattoo canvas tries to convince you that you need £300 of discs and pads while it's on the ramp.

I use camskills and fit myself. Perfect solution if you have access to the facilities
