We have big problems in Cornwall in getting any of the mobile fitters to provide service so I ordered online and had local garage to fit and balance for £20.
I ordered from Tyreleader.co .uk the following,
Uniroyal Rain MAX 2 185R14C 102/100Q 8PR (Light truck summer) 2 52.90 £ ex VAT total price £105;80

Tyres for my 1990 Puck range from silly..£25 to 'ow much ? at over £50; It's only a little van, how critical are the sizes ?

Having found some tyres locally, £51 each fitted ! I took the old ones off today ready to exchange them. I took a picture of the date on the tyres....3312...
if I read it right then it’s 2012 !!88A1303B-3965-42FF-BECB-03271AEBF1E6.jpeg - Bild entfernt (keine Rechte)

Just had the new tyres fitted. The garage couldn’t have done more for me. I decided after I had ordered the tyres to see if I could get the wheels sandblasted. I found someone locally who charged £30 for the two. To me they looked good. I rang another firm who painted wheels and they said if I could get them there in the next half hour, they could do them. So off I went. When he saw that the tyres were still on the rims, I was told that they couldn’t do it. I didn’t realise the the tyres should have come off for sandblasting ! So he did break the beads for me to allow me to tape off the tyres.. I went home ☹️ Next day, I thought that I could be cheeky and ask the garage that was fitting the new tyres if they wouldn’t mind removing the old ones ? No problem they said....and they did it for me.
So home and set up the shed for painting. I put a board on my workmate and put a lazy susan on the top. A square of board on the top and I was able to rotate the wheels freely. Two tins of spray paint later, 5 coats on both sides. Sunday night they came into the house and were left on the dining table to harden
off. My daughter was not amused ! So, forward to this morning...tyres fitted and I was quoted £51 per tyre 😱 when it was time to pay the bill, they looked at it and queried the price of the tyres. By the time they had finished deliberating the tyres cost £41 each. One happy customer. Needless to say, they are now fitted on the caravan, whilst the weather was a tad warmer ! And they look 100% better !78964A22-9A85-44B4-92E3-3AC3BF109827.jpeg - Bild entfernt (keine Rechte)
