Where to buy Tyres?

I'm looking to buy 5 7.50x16 Michelin XS-Fs. Best price I've seen so far is around GBP 190 each. Seems a bit much to me.

Can anyone recommend a decent tyre supplier who has good prices?

Cheers,
Nick.

Hi

If youn are somewhere in the south of England try Micheldever Tyres, they are usually well priced, however if you do go there make sure to arrive early (before 10am) or expect to wait in a queue - I went the week before Xmas and joined a line of 35 cars!

Cheers

Nene Valley 4x4 Tyres in Northamptonshire are very good on price and very friendly and helpful. They advertise in some of the Landy mag's etc

I picked up XZL's for under £78 including new wheel, tubes etc which is well under half price the rrp of just the tyre (they get them of military vehicles I think..)
