Now £300 the poorer,
« on: 20 August 2015, 20:07:46 »

....not that any of you wealthy bastards care. :'(

Four new tyres to be fitted by a mobile Kwik Fit fitter on my drive. Don't worry  I shall check they put them on the right way round. ;)


So 4 x Goodyear F1 Eagle Asy 2......... 225/45/17Y. Cost £75 each.
Assuming £15 a corner to fit, the tyres work out at £60 each. Reasonable.


Some may find them cheaper but it was the best price I could get.

Seems a good price there, matey.
Even Tyre Shopper are £82 fitted, and they are usually very comepetitive :y

Indeed I could, Mr Varche.

I have to say I'm a little disappointed with the longevity of the front tyres on the Signum. :(

£300 to me is like 30p to you.

(Relatively) Decent levels of grip let down by poor no feedback, so you're never quite sure when they are about to kill you.

Sadly, starting to get pricey for what is, after all, a budget tyre.

I was looking at houses up your way earlier, Opti (well, Boston way) .. they're so cheap you must have pots of spare cash rolling around, £300 will be nothing to a fella like you ;)

'course the Internet was 3Mb ADSL so there went my dreams of moving to the countryside  :'(

When I saw the headline I thought that's a cheap laptop where Lady Opti has seen your hacked details online from a well known risque US website, just to read it was about mundane Sicknum tyres. :P :P :P

Did they or you supply the scaffold pole for tightening the wheels nuts to the correct torque settings? ::) ::) ::)
