£@20 per 235 MT seems silly yet sure read a thread recently...somewhere

Any input appreciated....

Small local place will strip & refit a set of 5 for £10-£15, cash of course

:shock:

Do em yourself - it takes about 2 minutes to fit a tyre with a tyre lever !

Once done take em to the local (independent) garage and have them balanced for about £2.50

£60 fing quid? WOW, do people pay that??

it's easier to change a big tyre than a sporty low profile type
