Cheapest tyre????
 
I am desperately over due a rear tyre. I want to fit a BT 020.

The cheapest price I have found so far is BMF which is £97.04 delivered. Does anyone know anywhere cheaper??

Thanks in advance :thumbsup:

Try Essential Rubber , Downham Road, N London 0207 241 0055
I got a Metzler Z6 rear fitted for £95 earlier this month

or you could try www.tyresalesuk.co.uk, although the price on their website was more than having it fitted by Essential Rubber

or www.fwr.co.uk, they're based in Kennington, S London

Cheers

if someone else wants a tyre aswell i can do them delivered to me in leatherhead for £95 each but you will struggle to find them much cheaper as we pay £86.77 plus carriage charges for orders under £150

Well if that's true (and of course not saying it isn't :wink: ) then I amy as well order the one from BMF as they are charging me £97 delivered to my door. If I get it from you then I will have to find a way to come and pick it up as well. Would cost me more than the extra £2 in petrol.

Thanks for the offer anyway. :thumbsup:

I guess I will go ahead and order the tyre then. I can't afford to hang around as the tyre is well and truely on the limit of legality, and don't really fancy getting prosecuted first day back at work in new year. :roll: :roll: :roll:

no problem dude i thought you might do that anyhow. so i'm not that surprised. just thought you may like to know the facts about how much tyre dealers have to play.
