No rear 20's Michelin or Pirelli. 1 month or over 2 month wait. Rubbish

Have you tried these people?:-

http://www.tyreleader.co.uk/

Appear to be showing stock for your car - rear 19" + 20"

It's mail order so they'd need fitting of course.

From experience those sites always say they have and when you enquire turns out they don't. I always use Protyre and they checked direct with the manufacturer. BMW dealers tend to use them as well.

Tyre leader - price is good delivery / customer service is not.

Promise a 48/72 hour delivery - my last order from them took 11 days......

No communication from them to say where the tyres were, why they were late. Got in touch with their customer service - by web chat only - they didn't know where they were either, then the tyres turned up the next morning. Useless. Very very frustrating.

I had a set of 20 inch rear mpss fitted on Tuesday at Bracknell Tyre and Battery. I called up on the day and they happened to have 2 on the shelf. £570 fitted, plus a £50 fuel voucher.

Have you tried calling around?

I think you were very lucky .. been quoted £558 fitted at my office .. on 18 April.

May just last legally but may have to resort to phoning around or using my old landy!

Try Blackboots in Chesham. There weren't any in the country when I needed some but they got some from abroad in 5 days.

I may be better off pre-ordering some rears as me thinks i'll wipe mine out at Donington in a couple of weeks.
