Hello all,

I'm just about needing to buy a new set of 4 Pirelli Euphoi@ run flats for my Cooper. I've had no problems with them and will be sticking to them, keeping it OEM and all that.

The cheapest place I can find them is about £450 fitted at Kwik-Fit.

Does anyone know of anywhere cheaper than that? It's a bit of a wallet killer this close to Christmas!!

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks, James

In all honesty I'd avoid Kwik Fit when it comes to fitting runflats... A few people on here have had issues will rim damage... Take a look on ebay as you may be able to get a brand new set of wheels with runflats for around £500... (Or the classifieds on here) I've done this twice now, I just sell my old rims on when I need new tyres...

You might want to consider Dunlop runflats - they seem to get better reviews.

I think £450 all in is about as cheap as you will find. I had two new Dunlops fitted for £240 all in recently at a local garage. They will often match the big names like KwikFit if you give them a call

I know mine aren't runflats, but it should show you what rip off merchants they are - £70 for 175 p3000s, and yet mini dealer = £58 for the same tyre! Both prices include fitting!
