195 45 15's

Can anyone advise the cheapest place to get a decent set of 195 45 15's?

I remember someone on here being in the tyre business, they still about and can do me a deal?

I have sourced Yoko AS01's for just over £140 a set, just wondered if there was anything else for the price that was half decent?

tried the usual blackcircles / camskill but they are more expensive than Ebay.

The nets always best to buy, but get a good deal on fitting as many garages will tuck you up the difference for not buying from them.

Re: 195 45 15's

I'd expect to pay no more than £20 for fitting and balancing. They are going on new rims so no taking old wheels off and disposing. You think that's about right?

That's it mate, sometimes ya can get a good deal with tyres then getting a garage to fit them just adds to the bill, they usualy charge about 21+

Re: 195 45 15's

is that polished or painted, some frenh guys had polished williams wheels at the pod many moons ago, looks sweet..

im thinking of having my old dears 182 wheels painted chrome or black chrome for a laugh, but it might only be funny for a half hour or so:scared:

Owch, i hope you did not buy that new, its lost about 13k right? sorry its going, i would love a white one.

Im selling mine once the r5 is finished, use the 5 for a summer car then buy something for the winter.

What you going to replace it with?

Thankfully Phil, I saved over 7k buying it as an ex demo. A decision i'm glad of now.

Just going to buy a cheap run around for the next 6 to 12 months. Not gonna even look till the cars gone, needs to be something half decent a i can't rock up to client meetings in the 5.

I've taken the 5 to the office a few times and my boss threatened to shoot me.

Suppose he had a point, i left it on the car park and went into town for a morning meeting, the whole time i was away the alarm went off and its one of the annoying clifford ones :wasntme:

Lucky there then, i did the same with my old evo saved 4k on a pre registered car, still lost a small fortune mind.

Sounds a good idea, what sort of budget do you have? Please no more hairdresser cars ;)

Im considering a civic type r or maybe a cupra r for around 6-7k, when i get to needing a car for the winter.

Oh, just in case anyone is interested, Tyretrader.com can supply T1-R's for £161.00 delivered.

Went into Chemex today and they priced matched, phoned just after 5 tonight to tell me they were at the branch, pick up the wheels Sat morning and Ryan P is kindly putting the two together, looks like Ryan's beers are on me at POD :agree:
