hiya, avoid Bronco 4x4 like the plague!! they make good tyres but you'll be waiting till christmas and beyond before they turn up!!!!service is far from good!!
Kwik Fit won't fit any tyres you havent bought from them. some places quote silly prices to fit your own tyres, i had a quote for over 100 quid to fit 4 tyres!!(my heart skipped a beat)! I got mine fitted by an independent garage, which was no drama, and they only charged 20 quid!!!what more can you want!?

my advice would be to do some research on companies and avoid the Broncos!
hope this helps

Hi, i buy all my tyres online for 4x4, car anything you can get discounts ranging from 30% to 80% on new tyres if you get it right, simple easy and will save a few hundred pounds if done right.

Hi.

Use a small local tyre company for fitting own purchased tyres, you are more likely to get a decent price for fitmen, preferbly check around first.

As I will be soon looking for replacement tyres, 10.50x31x15, any suggestions would be welcome,as to suppliers.
