ATS doing 30% off 4 Michelins and £50 fuel voucher

[terryb]

Great deals with them at present. I'm getting a full set of Cups fitted to a 996 GT3 for £960 with the £50 fuel voucher taken into account. It's not advertised on their website, but was offered to me when I went in to discuss. Happy Days

Just had a quick look on their web site and I couldn't see anything special ...

As I said, you need to speak to them. Just had mine done today and this deal was offered

ATS Bracknell, great price, woefull service, recently took same car (6.3) and fitters just did everything wrong, they really are not used to looking after P cars, inc chipping paint off rear calipers despite my giving them fitting tubes (didn't know what they were) dropped greased wheel bolts in sand, loosened wheel bolts while vehicle still on ground, no torque wrench ( took my own) and to top it all their wheel balancer is out of wack, day later had to have all four re balanced on a Hunter. My advice, stay with car. Still...... good price.

they loosened the wheel bolts with wheels still on ground: how else do you loosen the front wheel bolts? I'm not trying to be a smart-ass, but I always loosen - not remove, just loosen - wheel bolts with wheels still on the ground so I'd like to know why that's wrong and what the alternative is...

Called at my local ATS and they are indeed doing this deal....on tyres up to and including 18" only!!!

looks like bks to me, I was told the online prices include the 30% (for four tyres) discount yet the online prices are the same as my usual supplier Event ?

My thoughts, been doing this for 40+ years!

So is it 30% off their online prices or their regular (inflated compared to Event) list prices ? the branch I rang said the latter in which case tiz bks - hey the ATS guy I spoke to may be wrong, hope so - tell us how much you paid for which size tyre and I can check with the online price

Tried my local branch,

They said they were doing 30% off but somehow still almost 25% more expensive than mytyres

[mollytherocker]

I recently bought a kitchen and got 85% off. It still cost a fortune!

Utter bullst. If anyone has paid full price, they would have paid the price of a small terraced house in the north!!!

Shame the post was made, wasted some of my time - guess I should've know better

I looked at this but a set of Michelin PS2s still worked out cheaper through Camskill.

Set of Cups for a 996 GT3, £995 fitted. Then a £50 fuel voucher makes the total less than £950. Tell me where you can beat that price fitted for 2 x 235/40/18 and 2x 295/30/18 Cups. It just can't be beaten.

Also I never said it was 30% off the online prices. I'm happy with the price I paid and Event Tyres don't seem to do Cups.

Called them yesterday, waste of time, still way more expensive than other places.

Fair enough, that is cheapest for those sizes although I would bet Event would match it - just in every other size price from ATS is ste
