That's not bad for a dealer. They told me that they can do the fronts themselves but they use Central Tyre (who have a machine with a nylon head) next door for the rears as their tyre machine isn't large enough to handle rears.

I called in at Central Tyre to see what their price was and after the guy found it on the database with a little help he said it was

I use Lookers as well.

They use Central Tryres, just down the road. They have the equipment and they have changes all the 00/01 wheels for Lookers. Try ringing Lookers (Kevin or Paul) and then ring direct.

Thanks for the help guys.

Tipton's a bit out of my way, Martin.

I'll book it in with Lookers who have been good for me in the past.

Chris, we'll have to have an East Mids Meet. Does early July sound good?
