Default Tyres on Back Order

New tyres are needed soon, but Bridgestone Potenza RE050s for the front are on back order and no-one knows when they will come in

If anyone knows of a supplier who has any fronts in stock(Manc/Cheshire area) then please let me know.

Thanks

Have you tried KwikFit? I rang them the other week after everyone else told me Potenza rear ones were on back order and they got them overnight for me.

I heard the container ship was coming in inside the next 2 weeks?? Tried unsucessfully to get two fronts over the weekend for mine down here in Warwickshire.

Clearly we've all been loving the corners a little to much over the sunny spell haven't we?!!!!

I need a pair of new fronts before my MoT this month.
Better start looking if there is meant to be some kind of shortage.

I know

With that, and the other discounts from suppliers/dealers, I reckon I've saved well over 10 years worth of membership fees
