Need two new tyres upfront for MOT on Friday.

Went to my local Quikfit got told 205/45/17 is a fairly odd size and they didnt have anything on the shelf and if I wanted Goodyears it would be about £350 for both fitted.. He then went on to suggest I go online and look as some good deals can be found.

Anyone know of any good sites that they have used before, good service/price?

They get a good rep, but my local indie was cheaper for what I wanted

I found our local tyre place is always cheaper than the internet tyre sites by the time you have messed around getting them fitted.

I always used Etyres. On my Volvo S60, MR2 Turbo and my Impreza they have always been cheaper than buying them elsewhere and getting them fitted. Friendly service, my local fitter is a top bloke and we always have a bit of a gas on about cars and tyres when he comes, and they come to your home address or place of work or whatever and fit your tyres there. Much better than going to a fitter!

Kwik Fit have better prices if you book online, it's less than £350 for Goodyears when just checked your size but it depends exact flavour of Goodyear you want.

Tesco have now started doing tyres online as well! No idea if they are good or bad but they seem cheap.

ClickonTyres are ok, depending on brand.
