Need some new tyres for the front of the Chim 225 50 15 Toyo, Etyres seem to be the best price i have found and they do mobile fitting.

Yep, we all use them here at my office. Event Mobile Tyres too. All good.

I have used them for about 10 years now (before they were E-tyres. The fitters come out to you and mine have been very professional. Having consulted their "tyre bible" they double checked with me if the quoted pressure (1.5bar) was right (they thought it was rather low) and they also confirmed if the correct wheel nut torque was 110Nm.

yes I ordered a couple of rears for my other half's jeep for home-fitting this Thursday. They always seem very well priced although I am not sure that they have the biggest range of tyres available. Mytyres or Blackcircles can deliver to your local fitter though I think and they are pretty well priced too,

I used to use them a few years ago. I had something like 13 tyres off them in 5 years. It is a franchise though so some areas are probably better than others.

I'd happily use them again though.

Hi Chris,
The snow on the Sunday of the North Wales trip can't have worn them out laugh

I got a set of 4 for the Tuscan from these chaps, www.tyretraders.com and they were very very cheap and quick delivering them. I had them fitted at a local garage who only charge me a fiver a wheel but I think the normal going rate is £10 per wheel at most places.
Pretty sure they're based in the midlands.

Hi

Not used them for my Griff but have used them for the last couple of years on our two euroboxes. No complaints and always had them fitted on my drive.

It is a franchise operation so standards may vary.

Hello - everyone is stocking the Eagle F1 GS-D3 arrow tread pattern tyres now. For a while you could only get the Eagle F1 Asymmetric

Out of interest, how much are you being quoted for the tyres?

Well, I usually use Mytyres for a price guide - they are quoting £120 for eagle f1 rears for me.
Etyres want £130 fitted - so looks good.

etyres, the mobile fitting for free swung it, saves me having to take time off work or fit it on a sat. They can also fit next day.

I've also used them on the Fury; very helpful, not sure if they would know the torque required for wheel nuts on a Tiv though, the certainly didn't on my Fury.
