if youv gone to a tyre specialist probley, can you not find a small garage that has the machine to do it?

thing is it will take them 20mins about, most garaes charge per hgour at around ?25-?40, so you shud only be looking at ?20 tops

when i had my tyres balanced and tracking done it was ?10 and he must of spent 45mins as track rod end was rusted solid :s

my local ats charge me ?5 +vat for a puncture repair... so thats the same labour as changing a tyre....

so thats ?24ish to fit 4.... make sure u take away the scrap tyres as there is at least a ?2 charge per tyre to dispose of them....

I fitted my tyres myself :) I also ordered my Kumhos from mytyres.net.

I charge about ?20 to fit four tyres and balance them up 'invisibly'
