Look reasonable prices.

I have to say that using Kwik Shite as a bench mark for tyre prices is a bit like using Harrods as a bench mark for caviar prices....

Very true, but, in my neck of the woods, there's not much choice and even if you buy four at kwik fit, they're still twice the price.

Note to myself: You've done this before and sold the car before you used the tyres, idiot.

Yep  ;D

Been there, done that...

Sold the 'meega with 4 brand new Michelin Primacy HPs bought at ATS for £480... >:(

I bet the trader took them off the car before selling it. ;)
