Cheap tyres again!

**Wilco** · 21st September 2007, 02:50

just bought a pair of new tyres on-line first time i've done this but the price i thought was excellent. 2x pirelli pzero nero's £323 fitted, was really looking to stay under £300 to be honest but i really fancied a pair of these. Cheapest price quoted locally was £358 for the pair so was more than happy with the price so if you fancy a look its www.tyretraders.com i will defo use them again even though the fitting center took 2 hours to fit the damn things!
come on now guys make me feel bad and tell me how much i could have got them for elsewhere!!

Couldn't find any 215 50 17 (I take it you're looking for this size as you don't elaborate?)

Cheapest 225 45 17 I could find were £187 per pair, so a big difference.

Hi Wilco,

That link was just by way of an example so you could see the tyre.

Try "ask seller a question" in the link as that's the seller who supplied Stuart's tyres and he was able to bargain with him i.e. free P&P
