I have used etyres.co.uk a couple of times and have been happy with the service they offer (they come to you) and they have been competitive, I have also used blackcircles a couple of times and they have been cheaper then etyres, but can take longer as they send the tyres to a local tyre fitter who you then go to to get the job done - but, since I last uesd blackcircles I tend to go to the same local tyre fitter as they would use and he is generally now a couple of quid per tyre cheaper!!!!

So it may pay you to seek out a local independent and see what their best price is, you may be surprised!!!

And I have never found the nationals like Kwikfit etc to be competitive on price!!!!

As for what to go for, I tend to use Firestone at the moment (made by Bridgestone), nd generally get 20-25k out of a set of fronts! but it is personal choice really, but I would stay away from the cheap brands!!
