Gav836 Posted January 29, 2012 Author Share Posted January 29, 2012 Good trucks Chris, just a shame the ground clearance isn't better on them.......and the wheelbase isn't a bit longer than the exact distance tramline tracks are apart when crossing them.......not recommended, had to be extracted by the farmer ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will need to get a couple of new ones this month. only 17" ones here bill, run falts see ,like i said lot cheaper price than most sellers, good 50 quid each cheaper than anyone else, thats what pay from using the same people for year, and the fact that a good work mate went to school with the lad there, and the two sisters thatwork with him were a year above that, not to often you see a very fit blond bird and a pretty dam fit brunett throwing tyres round, fitting them ect is it, so worth the savings and trip over Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Claaspower Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 I thought it'd be a German brand as I have never paid so much for tyres until herself got an Audi,hard to believe that tyres for a car could cost more than for a 4x4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BC Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 Two new tyres for my car at the cost of £ 379.17 fitted from Costco. They have a policy if you buy only two new tyres they will only fit to the rear which is fine by me since I have the day off tomorrow and I will be taking them off giving them a good clean and switching the new rear ones to the front and the current fronts to the rear.After I had bought and paid I said what would I have been for a pair of winter tyres Costco only deal in Michelin's and the "Alpine" ones were £ 269.98 each Anyway we have been lucky snow wise this year and I'm in "time to change car" mode again since well the old gal will be five years old come the end of July.I considered changing last year and then thought sod it I like her too much ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
