  • Tyre fitting

    What will be considered a fair price to fit a tyre to a alloy rim,,,,,I have some that need doing but most retailers wont fit your own tyres,,,the only one I have found so far want 20 pound a wheel ,,,Bloody tyres dident cost that

      £5-£10 a wheel around here for fitting your own tyres . Go in on a weekend nice and early and most will fit them on the sly for a drink

                We charge about £5 a wheel tbh, unless you turn up at the right time on a Saturday and you'll get away with buying a few bacon sarnies.

                  Our insurance stopped us fitting s/h tyres full stop Its all to do with being sued due to unknow history of the tyre and structual damage to the casing that cant be easily detected!!! we used to fit loads of them, Now we can fit customers own new tyres because they are covered by the manufacturers guarantee and charge £15 a piece inc valve/bal and disposal and we still fit loads of them Easy money but still cheaper than the local fast fit rip offs and we have never had 1 complaint about marking rims manily due to be careful unlike most of the other A little care makes all the difference and people know it,
                  But if its bacon sarnie time then forget all the above

                      I bought a second hand tyre machine - simply because every where near here wants about £20 a wheel for a change over !

                      It was £200 and I've used it a lot more tha 10 times !
                      Cheers Rob.
