Local tyre dealer fitted a pair of tyres last year for under £80 for the pair or was it £80?

Forgot the brand now but its a cheaper one, heavy duty load van tyre.    Nankang?

Just checked and yep that sounds abour right CW25's.

Cheaper than the link above but i had a spare set of rims which made it easier for me to take 2 rims to them.

TOTD,excellent service for me,fitted caravan and car tyres at my home,competitive prices,the two that did mine were very polite/smart/efficient and fast,they also fit tyres onto wheels with tyron bands,all I can say is that I can recommend the TOTD for my particular area,E tyres are also very good but slightly more expensive.
ps just noticed you close to my area(Dudley) so may get the same fitters.

I have always used e tyres which is a franchise you pay on Ebay through paypal and on date and time local e tyre agent arrives at the designated place arranged.
My last van had 6 year old Maxi milers removed and replaced on my front drive with two Nexens because two 14" Maxi milers could not be obtained in UK. Even Campbell, s at Whitehaven could not obtain.
Replace two tyres same size load etc with fitting balancing new valves and old tyres removed £100.
Three local tyre fitters were quoting over £100 all in and I had to take the van to them for replacements.

Further to above posts do you know Asda do tyres but you have to go to nearest fitter in scheme.
The price you see on screen when you Google Asda tyres is the all in price.
You can get all supreme brands cheaper than any local quote.
I had four Continentals on my Yeti replaced like for like for £204 Five miles from home only two miles further than three local fitters.

I had TOTD a few months ago for car tyres and was very impressed. They quoted cheaper than any of our local tyre places. Came a little earlier than the time slot but checked with me first to make sure it was OK. The van was absolutely immaculate with everything including balancing gadget, compressor etc. Unless I have a bad experience I'll stick with them from now on. I didn't have to sit in a reception area and drink coffee for an hour while waiting. I haven't forgotten my Yorkshire roots and will still check around of course.

Not used them for caravan tyres but can't see an issue with that. I would have thought TOTD would do these in a storage place too, as long as storage allowed it.

The other TOTD bonus was that he didn't offer to do a health check on any other part of the car. One of our local tyre places did a check on the battery for me. Told me I needed a new battery IMMEDIATELY. Two years later the old and useless battery was still doing fine.

My local garage came out removed and replaced all 4 tyres on my twin axle on my driveway. The tyres were cheaper than the usual quickfit etc and they didn't charge to come out to fix them. When I asked if this was a one off because I was a regular customer , they said no and when asked they are happy to oblige as long as the distance wasn't too far. Always worth asking!!

I used them twice last year for new tyres on the van and service was good and price reasonable. Both tyres were fitted on the storage compound I use with no problems and they had all the gear, they used airbags to jack the van up. I have found that trying to take the van to a tyre fitting place to be be a pain in the bum as they tend to be in narrow streets and the rig takes up a lot of room and I'm not going to jack up the van to take the wheel off and then take it to Kwik Fit or whatever. I would certainly use them again, hopefully in about 5 years time . I wouldn't used them for car tyres but that's because there's a garage 10 mins walk from me and I'm on first name terms with the boss and have all car stuff done by them.
