Hi

I need a pair of 265/35s (N1 speed rating) in a hurry - anyone recommend a reliable online supplier please - Zentrum will be fitting them if the supplier cannot.

+ thoughts on pricing would be appreciated please - I guess I am in for approx £500 notes

Thanks

Andrew
 
Assuming your in Notts because you mention Zentrum, I would try nottingham wheel alignment off meadow lane ... they have been really good when I wanted a very quick turnaround for tyres.

Edit: Scrub that - I just re-read and your asking for an online supplier ....
 
I don't think you are going to find N1 pilot sports now. N1s are quite old. I could not find any 18 months ago and settled for N3s (on the back with N1 still on the front). (triggers the usual long discussion on different N levels on different axles)

Now about to change all 4

I have just had exactly that pair fitted this afternoon in Leeds. Total cost was £460 with Alba Tyres Horsforth [on google] - not online I'm afraid but they got them in 1/2 a day. If you have a Costco near you they supply the same but amazingly were more expensive for me [£235 per corner] and couldn't supply until 20 July. If your online hunt fails it would be worth calling Alba - they may ship to you.

My local OPC in Switzerland has generously tried to replace all 4 tyres during the service today... and for an oil change and 4 Contisport Z rated they only wanted £3500!!!!!!!!

Told them where to stick that in a BIG hurry... £300 to do the tracking, £20 a litre for Mobil 1.... £80 to put aforesaid tyres on rims... stone chip in the rear reflector so they tried to replace that for £500 without mentioning it would be on the bill...

All the more serious as you don't pay on the day here... they bill you afterwards so do the "Oh yes, nothing to serious, bit of oil/filters and the screen washer pump", then as u are sat in the car, they say "oh yes, did change all 4 tyres as well, see you next year!"

Then a bill arrives a week later in the post. Fortunately wise enough to the games to catch most of the extra work this time, last time I got 2 new bonnet struts for £300 I didn't really need or want.

So anyone know blackcircles.com? Seem to have same tyres as my OPC were trying to fit for £650 a set for a C4S??

Cheers
Rick
