Tyre quote

[RS04COM]

Searched the net for a price for 255x35x19's. Black circles are offering Conti Sport 3's for £939.52. I popped along to my local Quicky-Fit, the guy punched a few numbers in, made a call and quoted me £680 fitted.

Personally I thought this wasnt too bad. Anyone else found any good deals on tyres? Also anyone running anything other than Conti's?

Good prices, but I'm not a big fan of conti sports - they last well, but, in my view, don't handle very well.

What about GY F1's or Vredesteins - I have run both and they both get 10/10 from me

I only recently put 255/35/19 Eagle F1 Asymmetrics on mine, From RSR Tyres in Bromley. Cost me £840 incl Vat, fitting and wheel balancing.

At that price got to be worth a go?? A mate had sp9000 on his RS4 and they were very good so may well be worth a punt

Not standard size but once fitted, you wouldn't notice. Also, others on site recommended them and I have to say , I appreciate their input - very happy.
Tyres Goodyear Assymetrics 275/30/19 - kwik fit - 680 fitted, tracked.
PHone your local Kwik fir dealer - you will be suprised (and haggle).

As mentioned above - cheers for bobs who steered me towards 275s

Surprised with how easy the 17 year old monkey will wreck and destroy your £2000 alloys in 2 seconds with an air drill........ I wouldn't take my car to kwikfit if they paid me!! Sorry not being a snob but they destroyed all 4 of my wheel on my RS6 and I had to take them to court to resolve it.

You get what you pay for in this world IMO

Oh dear, true words though, I would too pay that little extra for piece of mind, I live 2 min from a KF dealer, but decided to drive 20 min extra. not a bad price thogh on those F1s!

Had those idiots try to do tyres on my 540i.

Went out to look at the car and the spotty little <beep> had put wide tyres on narrow rims on back and narrow tyres on wide rims at front.

Never go there.

In defence to Kwik Fit dealers...they are all independant (franchised I think??).
Each to there own but I couldn't fault the ones I went to ( I did watch them though!!!).

Kwicky-Fit in Dunfermline always do a good service. I even got them to fit tyres onto my rare BBS 3pc Splits on my Golf G60 Syncro. They always take care.

They are a bunch of unqualified clowns, with a fantastic advertising budget - END OF!

Also looks like Camskill are doing 4x Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta's 275/30 R19 96Y XL for £560 delivered. £40 cash in hand should get them fitted for you so £150 per corner is not a bad price
