I'm sure OPW had a sale not long ago. Check in the tyre section below or I'm sure he's not hard to find on the internet.

Are they all fitted prices or just supplied?

Give Dave @ Lindsay's Tyres a shot (MUD EMPIRE on this board). He's always keen to beat a price where he can.

03 97370600
11 Clancy Road MOUNT EVELYN VIC

Might struggle to get a hold of him over the long weekend - he likes to wheel :cool:

i just like to shop around to see who does what at what price!!! to all i know someone on here might be able to do it cheaper than $340 to my door.

no harm in asking and if someone was in the same boat as me looking for tyres they can see them on here with out ringing everyone up.

if you look at the times, he asked for places, people answered, then he called them and edited the original post with prices.

OK, we really need a dedicated thread on tyre and rims sale points, im shopping for tyres and rims and its endless the options and prices are all over the joint

Someone needs to set up a NON baised(dont mind the pun) thread about recomended tyres types, radial and rags and best rims types, steel and alloy

Its really confusing trying to hunt down all the details that someone else has probly allready done 10 times over!
