The other day I had my neighbour Steve over and as we took a round in my Ford Escort on wet tarmac he suggested that I get my tyres checked since he had the opinion they barely had any grip. It turned out Steve had a point. Driving a 1995 Ford Escort 1.6 I was therefore out to get a good deal for a bunch of 175s - 70 R 13s. I checked my local dealer and was astonished how much a set of premium tyres would set me back. After all, I hadn't bought any tyres for my Ford since I got it from the show room. The very same neighbour told me to have a look online. Being sceptical about online shopping ... more

It all looks good on the web site but beware! The prices can change dramatically and goods don't turn up. I originally ordered during a snowy period and the price was around £490. Within 4 days it had dropped to £445 so I cancelled. It dropped in price again so I re-ordered and then the price dropped the next day another £40 or so! However, I stuck with my order but only 3 wheels and tyres turned up! So cannot use them and no sign of the last one! Get disconnected every time I try and talk to them - i.e. they aren't answering the phone and aren't replying to my emails (but they have my money) ... more

Deal with this company at your own peril. I ordered 2 tyres from them. Got email confirming order etc. A week passed and then nothing, so I contacted them via phone just to make sure all was well. Customer Services (definitely foreign sounding - but claimed they were in Oxford) said the order had not been processed and that I need to send them a utility bill. She didnt explain why nor had I received any email etc to this effect. The dim witted Customer Services lady (in my opinion) then said that I should go to my bank and do a bank transfer. I asked politely if I could do this over the phone ... more

I ordered my tyres on the 23rd October, they took my money on the 26th October and over a month later, I still have no tyres. After just over a week they advised me that the fitting centre that had gone out of business. I gave them my home address for delivery, but after two weeks I still hadn’t received my tyres, so had to follow up with them. They then told me that they encountered problems with the delivery being redirected and asked for another couple of days to send replacement tyres. The next day I received an automated email saying my order had been cancelled. Then a couple of days ... more

Avoid this bunch of timewasters, I checked the stock of the tyre I wanted by phone and was impressed by the prices I was told to place the order online as the operator basically couldnt be bothered, Two days later I was still waiting for a conformation Email so I rang them and was told that the Address needed to be confirmed which I duly did, they then claimed they had phoned me and left a message - which they had not. I then asked how long they would take to deliver my tyre and was told it was out of stock and would be at least 10 working days, I was told 2-4 working days by the previous ... more
