Anyone got any recommendations as to where I can get Pirelli P-Zero's in 295/30/R19 changed for an LP550?

Been to Lambo Manchester and they wanted a silly figure that you'd have to be an idiot to pay - £1100 for 2 tires. These tires are smaller than the ones on my old Porsche (which had 305 section P-Zero's), and those were only £340 per tire fitted!

Anyways, asked Ferrari in Wilmslow (where I bought the car from) and they've no tires in the network, any other good recommendations as to where to go?

Are you 100% sure that Lamborghini Manchester were quoting for 2 rears and not the full set? I changed both rear tyres with Lamborghini Reading in May and including the MOT it cost £702.

And they had to fly them in from Italy as there was no stock - took about a week.
Yep, guy wouldn't budge either. Never bought anything from them before so maybe that's why.

Event Tyres are imo the best. They do most of the City/Utd players' cars.

Weird, Birmingham charged just under £1200 for a full set when i had mine done.

Just be careful to get the correct variation of the size specific for the G.
Just called Birmingham to see if they have any in. The other place didn't have any, and Manchester came down to £1050 after a call yesterday for 2 tyres but that's it. They said basically "no one else has them, and we have to buy from Lambo" and that's why they were charging the rip off rate.

They'll have those tyres a long time because I can't see anyone buying them - I'd prefer to wait a month than get ripped off with a stupid rate like that, so will call around other places and maybe get the car picked up by birmingham to get them changed instead.
