I just phoned up my nearest place that fits tyres , they want £20 per wheel!!!!

Surely that isn't the going rate these days?

£5 straight fit or £7 balanced at the local part worn place. Usually splash out and get them balanced Smile

    Pug dealer charged £15 to fit/balance 4 tyres last week although they did supply the tyres.
    The guy said they usually charge £15 fit/balance per pair fronts or backs.
    20 is taking the p*ss imo

    Also, I bet when you get down there they don't have te correct adapter to balance them properly.
