mytyres.co.uk were good, i ordered 4 235/45 17 Goodyear Eagle Asymetrics and they were the cheapest, £450 fitted at my local Protyre, took about a week for them to arrive and be ready to fit.

I've used http://www.event-tyres.co.uk/ twice so far and been happy with them. They're an online mobile supplier/fitter.

I've also heard good recommendation of http://www.micheldever.co.uk/car_tyres.html although they're not online as such.

Thats just what I've done - saved myself £20 a tyre from original local quote for same tyres and £4 a tyre less than cheapest online quote (http://www.tyretraders.com )  :y

Mytyres are good, however ring Tony at 'Wheels in Motion', the prices, knowledge and assistance are the excellent. 01494 797820, worth the trip.

I have used mytyres for the last three pairs. I use a local tyre fitter who charges £10 per wheel for fitting, balance, and disposal of old tyres. Good service from mytyres, I only use budget tyres, which have been excellent value.
