I've used Camskill loads of times, very good company, never had any problems with them and their prices are excellent...

No I do not work for Camskill :P

Christ, I used to pay about £48 fitted for those back in 2006... and that was cheap at the time.

Mind you, add on fitting and hassle and you're probably not too far apart. I always look online for tyres, but always end up buying from a local place as it's just so much easier to turn up and have them fit them all in. Only usually £2-£5 more a tyre and worth it.

I usually end up paying £80-90 for my 17s though :(

That's dam cheap. I remember phoning round loads of places before and the cheapest I could fine round here was about £11 a corner. Hence I just couldn't be bothered and bought from the garage.

we charge £10 a corner to fit your own tyres but for internet places some of them now supply and fit, they use your local tyre depot to fit them for you. here are some others to try,

tyrexpress
blackcircles.com
valuetyres
mytyres
tyretraders.com
bestbuytyres
ctyres

they all use us as a fitting agent, if you go onto there sites they will tell you who is near to you, i hope some of you find this useful. regards ricky
