I have been looking around to see how much cheaper it is to get my rubber off the net, and have been on 2 sites.

my tyres

and

www.blackcircles.com

I have decided either on Good year Eagle F1's
or to pay a bit more and replace with originals
Michelin Pilot Sport's

Can any one recommended blackcircles.com, did any one have any problems ect?

Best price i got for Good year F1's 4X £379. inc fitting.

Michelin’s 4x £473 inc fitting
But local tyre company will do it for £450 on either Good year or Michelin.

Thanks for the INFO :D

I've used black circles before and they basically sorted the order then I had a phone call from the local national tyres guy who came and collected the car and fitted the tyres. He then delivered the car back. The thing is though they were cheaper by about £50 than what National Tyres quoted in the first place?. :wtf:

Good price though and service :)

I have used Blackcircles once. The tyre fitting company they use in my area managed to scrape the rims and gouge the spokes when fitting my front tyres.

I took this up with Blackcircles (as the contract is with them) and they agreed to get them repaired.
However, they would only do two wheels which is a problem as nobody I spoke to could match the colour. I argued that this being the case I would need to have all five wheels done.
Their answer was a classic - "Put the two different wheels on one side of the car as you cant't see both sides at once."
Hell, at least it made me laugh!
Suffice to say I didn't do this and now have two badly scored wheels.

They're only as good as the garage you choose. The garage I went to had two customers booked in with the same size tyres : my Michelins and some make I'd never heard of. Guess which set ended up on my car!!! [:@] Didn't notice until I got home and then had to go back again.


Looks like there's 5% off today if you enter code BC121.

I also got quotes from these two companys. Mytyres were the cheapest but i didn't like the garage they used in my area so decided to pay the little bit extra and ordered them through blackcircles. Tyres were ready to be fitted the following day. Good all round service from blackcircles and the garage they used. :clap:

Oh and goodyear f1's have my vote! ;)

I'll let you know I'm having tyres fitted tomorrow. So far so good. Rang them up paid for tyres and they emailed me my receipt and map directions to nearest fitting station which is 2miles away....
