182 Suspension Pack New Tyres

[FANG]

Ouch

Just had to get a new tyre after a nail found its way into my front left after 500 miles.

145 pounds for one tyre, this due to the fact that the tyre is brand new from michelin designed specificially for the 182 - the garage told me

Is this true or have I been ripped off.

riped people have said they have seen the for about 90 quid fitted

 

[CocoPops]

they are around 80-90quid from mytyres.co.uk iirc??

Its cos of the hardnened side wall of the exalto2s £145 is still quite expensive for them tho.

 

[bigmouk]

think costco do them for 70-80 (could be wrong though)

 

[iceblue182]

you can get them fitted on a mobile basis by kwick fit for £98

 

[Kiev85]

i was charged £104 from quick fit fitted and balanced

 

[blink172]

£68 for 195s and £80ish for 205s delivered from mytyres.co.uk

Fitting is usually about a tenner a pop, think they saw you coming bud.

i paid £78 from mytyres, renault only charge about £120

now i have changed mine i have kept my old ones incase i get a puncture so that i cant be raped by a supplier who can get one when I need one!

 

[James 182]

youve been arse raped by your dealer!!!!

never buy things from the dealer unless you have too!

The bestoption is to go out and get a spare off of another clio and then keep it at home.

If you have a puncture then get the car recovered to your place and put your spare on untill you get the right tyre fitted.

Or failing that, by a 182 alloy off ebay and have a tyre fitted to it ready just incase

Thanks chaps for all your comment confirming that i got completely ripped off by a dealer.



Next time I will shop around.
