I have found some tyres nice and cheap but I will need themFitting. Does anyone know anywhere on the south coast who offer a fitting only service and how much I would expect to be paying? ________________________________________ 1998 (S) Phase 2 Diablo Red GTI-6 |

Most places will do it for you. Obviously needs to be a place that can balance wheels with solid centres if they're going on cyclones though________________________________________ Rallye-RNurburgring article |

What a crock of shit, I hate it when people use crap excuses just because they can't be arsed. Just say you don't have time! My optician tried telling me they can't sell me contact lenses unless I paid for a checkup first. Seriously love, it's not methadone. And yes, places round here are about a tenner a corner. Little local one-offs tend to me more accomodating than big chains, especially if you're happy paying cash. ________________________________________ Membership expiring soon, get in contact on our new little forum project. |
