Default Cheap place to get tyres

Well cheap is relative but reasonable should be a better title. I'm after some new hoops when the bike is running again and fingers crossed that'll be next week.

I fancy either:

Dunlop Roadsmart's or
Michelin Pilot Road 2's or
another dual compound tyre

Are storms dual compound?

Anyway I'm not opening the can of worms that is what tyre is best but I am looking for a good deal on ride in ride out fitting (no I don't want to fit my own and no I don't want to just take the wheels in )

So is there 'a place' you know of in the north west, say 30 miles radius of warrington that you can either post or pm me with please.

Many Thanks

Si

F&B Tyres (Steve - 01270 760795) just outside Sandbach always gets very positive feedback. More details over here.

I take my wheels to Tony Salt who is right next to you at Risley. He does all your dual compounds and I'm happy with his prices and service. He does do 'ride in, ride out'.

Hope this helps.

Yer I have a price from TST and a couple of other shops in warrington, I used TST in the past with my pointy when I had it and they were great and was planning to use them again, having said that I just phoned F&B tyres and they are 20% cheaper than all the fitting places in warrington, that's 50 quid less for ride in/out on road pilot 2's. suffice to say I have a pair on order
