Hey guys,

probably been posted a 100 times before but I'm unable to find any info on here.

So i thought I would ask the guys in the know...

Looking at ordering a set of Michelin Pilot Sports PS2 255 35ZR Y96 X 4, can any recommended any online sites with reasonable prices??

Cheers guys...

Paul

I usually just do a quick Google at the right time. At few that spring to mind:
Tyremen
Blackcircles
... there's about a million. Worth trying your local indie too: I got my last set from Revolution.

If you know a friendly garage who will fit for cash, buy supply only from Camskill and save a fortune. Dad was chuffed he got his local tyre shop down from website price 131 to 118.......... until I pointed out they were only 92 Camskill. Tenner cash a corner to fit tops.

Camskill or click on tires! Both very good on prices. I had x2 Dunlop sportmaxx GT's fitted at pro-tyre for £430.

Forgot about camskill - yeah they were excellent for my winter tyres a few years ago.

MAC Tyres in Peterhead, they are £18 a tyre but will fix your rim if they damage it and fill them with Nitrogen for £1 a corner.

I just had 4 new tyres put on ~4 weeks ago - think theyre PS3s. Supplied and fitted by Colin's Tryres in Dyce for £215 per corner. That was the cheapest I could find in Aberdeen - not sure how much they would be for fitting only but Ive used them a few times now and are normally the most competitive so I imagine they would be on fitting as well.

My mate has his own garage - just outside Aberdeen, Drumoak, who would be able to fit them. Not sure what he charges but he couldnt match Colin's for price to supply and fit. Here's link to his website if you want to give him a shout. I'm due him a favour as he had to adjust my suspension up a bit at the back after getting the new tyres as they were rubbing. Both were about seized so he spent about an hour on it and it only cost me a couple of pints!

If you haven't bought them already, have you considered Michelin Pilot Sport 3 from Costco. Next month they will be having a buy 4 get 20% off deal, so you'll get a full set for about £800 fitted.

If you're not a Costco member, PM me.
