Title: tyre prices
Post by: scooba on September 09, 2010, 06:11:03 am
Where is the best place to buy Michelin PS3 or vredstein sessantas     225/40/18


I have had a quote of £490 for 4 PS3 to my door not bad !

I dont need fitting as my wheel shop will fit the tyres after refurbishing my Pescaras thankyou as always

ATS advertise PS3 at £151.99 so around £608 a set but it does mention up to 25% off if you buy 4  so possibly £456 plus i don't need fitting or valves or balance ,I will be giving them a ring tomorrow

I just bought 4 Vredesteins from EliteDirect.com for £347, including free delivery. They were the cheapest I could find anywhere.

Costco...

mind you with one tyre at 39 and the other at (from memory) 34 I think the quality of their installation was questionable! Also if using I would strongly advise a check of each wheel with the supervisor ahead of letting these donkeys loose on your wheels.

And they will ONLY install (if you are buying 2 tyres) them on the rear axle, but to be fair you can change these easily after I guess

OP said he can get 4 PS3s for £490 which works out cheaper than this.

Just wanted to point out that the £119.99 is excluding VAT.
