Anyone got any recommendations for tyre fitting around east London. Need to get them before mot and elms quoted £96 which seems fairly punchy. I've looked back in a few threads and saw elite in rainham recommended but it also had mixed comments...

Cups are currently cheaper than SS on tyreleader but is 2011 year of manufacture a bad thing? I only do (very) limited mileage so tyres will probably not need replacing for a couple more years.

Cheers

I've used elite in Rainham a couple of times - no issue.

just had mine done at Grays auto centre in romford for 80 using tyre leader cups.
They were careful with my rims

old tyres are like old rubber, oil comes out and they get more brittle.

:banghead:

I never understand people having nice cars and saving on tyres when they are the old thing keeping you on the road. I wouldn't.

Standard price(£96) from BMW

I've always used the same tech @ my local BMW dealership

At least there's no stress should BMW damage your wheels

I suppose it's down to the condition of your rims and your OCD!!
