True - £400 + VAT for staggered Vreds delivered - couple of quid cheaper than CamSkill and delivered next day.

Tried loads of online retailers at the start of the year when looking for a set of Vreds, ended up at the local Independant Tyre Centre round the corner, by the time you had added on postage and fitting the online guys were no cheaper, ring round you could be pleasantly surprised.

I used www.clickontyres.com for my set of Vreds and they did a good deal. The fella that runs the show knows his stuff and take the time to chat.

So I bought a 35is with all the toys to play with. :thumbsup:

http://www.tyretraders.com --- I've used these guys for both the Falkens on the Z4 and the Continentals on the daily driver, they have proved to be very competitive. They also have the advantage of having a network of fitting centers that take delivery of the tyres and do the necessary.

On this side of the pond a lot of local dealer will beat Tirerack and other on-line sources especially when you consider shipping costs. The local dealer I use will not only do a slightly better bottom line price than Tirerack but when purchased from them lifetime balancing is included.
