Need to replace rear tyres on the M12. Have found same as fitted for £154 each including fitting, VAT etc. This looks a good price but if anyone knows cheaper can they let mre know. Query is regarding the valves. Normally they are changed as part of fitting new tyres but the stock items are not standard rubber fittings but the rather smart metal ones. Will I need to replace them? If so, where can they be sourced?
Thanks in advance

£154 each is a good price - I was around £165 when I had the M12.

Don't worry about the metal valves - all tyre places will have them if they need replacing - but most of the time they have just put a new "core" in them when I've had it done which takes 1 minute and costs £1.

Joust,
Many thanks. I didn't want to lose the smart metal exterior.
