I was waiting for the deal too till I realised they didn't have any PS3s (18s) in stock and haven't had any for months so I went elsewhere!

It's never been 25% - used to be 20%. But as stated they haven't done that for some years.

There an offer from next Monday but it's the standard Michelin offer which is available pretty well anywhere. A £15 - £60 (the whole purchase, not per tyre) fuel voucher depending on tyre diameter. http://www.michelin.co.uk/tyres/special-offers/fue...

Something must have changed in the relationship between Costco and Michelin as they never used to be eligible for the Michelin offers. They used to always be the cheapest place for Michelin and then the 20% offer made them way cheaper, but they're easily beaten now. They've even whacked up the fitting charge.

Yep, haven't seen the 20% in a long time. Suspect it won't ever be back.
The last few cycles it's been £50 or so off and the next cycle is the fuel vouchers. Which now to even get the £60 of fuel you have to be buying 19"!

Not Michelin, but I got some Kumho All-Seasons a few weeks ago from http://www.tyres-pneus-online.co.uk/ . Cheapest place I could find and it all worked OK. Their prices change every day though.

Call your local Costco and ask for the price.

Last set I purchased was significantly cheaper than all other tyre places, inc Blackcicrles and Camskil

Give Blackcircles a try. I've always found them competitive for an all-fitted price on Michelin PS3s (unless you know a cheap tyre fitter).

£2/tyre difference for me between Costco and Black Circles.

Happy to pay additional £8 if it means I don't have to go to Watford.
