A4_Family_Man Posted September 7, 2006 Report Share Posted September 7, 2006 With the tyres looking like they will need to be replaced before the winter, whats the current cheapest place to get a set of tyres fitted from? Would love to shop at Costco - but no card Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shark_90 Posted September 7, 2006 Report Share Posted September 7, 2006 Beware of cheap tyres mate, added to the fact that it's winter, it could be a recipe for disaster. Worth paying the extra for a decent set Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adwhitworth Posted September 7, 2006 Report Share Posted September 7, 2006 I had 4 Eagle F1s put on for £385 all in. I'd highly recommend you don't put budget tyres on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shrops_Paul Posted September 7, 2006 Report Share Posted September 7, 2006 I always used toyo proxes on my scooby. Will probably use them again when the current tyres werar out. Could not fault them for the cost. Try http://www.mytyres.co.uk/Tyres.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P_G Posted September 8, 2006 Report Share Posted September 8, 2006 Can you get Goodyear F1's from Costco? If so how much? I'd collect rather than courier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattburrow Posted September 8, 2006 Report Share Posted September 8, 2006 As far as I am aware Costco only stock Michelin. I could be mistaken though. I shall check Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrisg Posted September 8, 2006 Report Share Posted September 8, 2006 just bought 4 Toyo Proxes (T1R) 234/40 x18 from Montys (Iver)£580 all incl Much quieter than the Rossos that lasted 18700 miles, they did warn me that I will not get 18000 miles out of them ..... Better ride as well, it now has a 'softer' feel to it and 2004 S Line quattros ride really hard, at least as hard as the GmbH suspended S3 I had before.
