I also use these guys: http://www.oponeo.co.uk/tyre-finder/s=1/summer/t=1/car/r=1/225-40-r18/ip=1/y

Got a really good price on winter tyres. Great comms throughout and arrived in about 4 days from Germany.

Where are you having them fitted? I read something a while back about having to be 'extra careful' with diamond cut wheels and fitting?

long way off fitting but probably like a malvern tyres place, somewhere decent but not too corporate

I'm going to get VW to do mine - when I had the Mk6, they charged £25 to change all 4.

Wow, what's the catch? Ordering 2 Goodyear Eagle F1's too. Almost £10 less per tyre than I've seen elsewhere.

Just about to buy some PS3's from Camskill to replace the average Bridgestones after 14K. Checked the ATS website as we've one just down the road and they are very careful with your wheels. They are doing the PS3's at £110 each fitted, plus there's a £30 fuel card, so £95 fitted and no hassle staying in waiting for tyres to turn up etc. Halfords are doing a cheap deal today as well
