£5 straight fit or £7 balanced at the local part worn place. Usually splash out and get them balanced ________________________________________ Passat B5.5 TDi estate (174bhp, 260 lbs/ft) |

Pug dealer charged £15 to fit/balance 4 tyres last week although they did supply the tyres.The guy said they usually charge £15 fit/balance per pair fronts or backs. 20 is taking the p*ss imo |
