F12 Winter tyres

Quote from the stealer was £4,100. Thought that was a bit strong. Had a look online and the precise F approved Pirelli Sotto Zeros, delivered from Germany, are £1,564.72 for the 4 and in stock.
2 Pirelli W 240 Sottozero 305/35R20 104V /M+S/ and 2 Pirelli W 240 Sottozero 255/35R20 97V /M&S/XL/.

Hi, just ensure that the tyre fitters are competent with the fitting. I made the mistake of having new tyres fitted on my Scuderia by a company that may have let an apprentice do the work which resulted in an inside wheel rim being damaged. It was lucky the wheels had just been refurbed and delivered to them that there was no argument with a complete replacement. From what I recall the wheel had been placed incorrectly on the fitting machine.
Anyway, what a great car you have bought!

I have asked the dealer for an install price. From wandering past the workshop even they sub it out to a man with a van! But yes, I'm very protective of alloy wheels, so will enquire about contactless removal machines. No issue with TPMS as the wheels and valves will stay the same, so even (perish the thought) KwikFit could do it, but I don't think I'll be trying them....
F dealer said they had never been asked to store and swap tyres before. Anyway, they weren't interested in doing it at any price, so had my local Jaguar dealer (which is part of the same group) do it (inc storage and unlimited swaps) for a small fee and some champagne.
The torque settings on the wheel bolts are:
Pre-tightening 35Nm
Final torque 100Nm
