I have been offered a deal on the following tyres by the UK's leading online tyre seller. To acheive this deal we need to get ten people to order four tyres each.

The difficulty will be that the ten people have to order the same brand ie Toyo, Avon or Falken. It dosn't have to be the same size or model, just the same brand.

The Prices in brackets are for 4 tyres and includes VAT and delivery.

1). Avon ZZ3 from £ 82 to £77.50 (£310) Available in correct Mini size of 205/45/17

2). Falken ZE512 fron £ 60 to £57.50 (£230) Available in correct Mini size of 205/45/17

3). Toyo T1R - These are not currently available in the correct Mini size but 215/40/17 is. These are (£326) if the customer can have it shipped to a business address instead of a private address, otherwise they are (£336).

Post your thoughts and preferences, I'll give it a couple of weeks and see if we can do this!!

I would be very interested but any chance of a set of 18's going on the list??

Cheers,

Jones!

Ok so re-read your post and dont think there would be another nine people wanting 18's.

spillers · Oct 9th, 2004, 10:06 AM

Dosn't have to be the same size, just the same brand. So if you wanted a 18" tyre thats ok

Jones · Oct 9th, 2004, 10:35 AM

Ok so I would need 215/35/18 and order of preference would be the Toyo's and then the Falkens.

Cheers, count me in!

Jones!

Hiya Spillers,

Can you get me a price for the following please.....

Toyo T1-R - 195/55R16 87V - 4-off.

Currently trying to weigh up Bridgestones vs the Toyos.......Bridgestones are a little bit more, but may last longer, based on some reviews.

I should be able to accept these through work, so the 10% discount would be applicable.

I'll give you a decision should the cost work out!

Can you also get a quote on the following too........

Toyo T1-R - 205/50R16 87V or 87W.......just as a comparison with the above.

The 195s are a direct replacement for the RFs.......the 205s are a more widely available size, so may be cheaper in the first place!

I'm thinking we are getting around a 5% discount......is that correct.......I'd try for 10%, based on they're getting an order for 40 tyres!
