Being fitted this afternoon so we will see.

I did try Chapel Tyres as they repaired my punture before but their PC system was down and they could not give me a quote.

Good price!

Will bear Chemix in mind next time I need some rubber.

Good price, make sure to check the full tyre name/spec including the BMW RSC star symbol which is only on the BMW approved tyres.

Ti Rich · 08-04-2009, 02:03 PM

All fitted no problems!

Run flats with the BMW star. So not a bad price then!

Dr Dave · 08-04-2009, 02:13 PM

A cracking price infact!

Chapel Typres in West Brom today fitted a set of MICHELIN PILOT SPORT 2 RUN-FLAT 255/35/R18 on my car. I've found them to be cheapest in the Midlands!

The set cost me £450 fitted, not a bad price

If your based in the Midlands, give them a call

Stealership wanted almost £300 per RFT tyre!

Apologies, yes defintely run flats (checked and confirmed) one set of rears only for that price

If your interested in a price for non-rft's have a chat with someone called Kas at Chapel Tyres. I believe he's the boss at the West Brom office.

The lads at Chapel tyres are great. Good prices, they get the stock in quick and are ready for you when you arrive.

Ended up getting some Vredesteins from Chemix, 235/35/19 £125.00 each, 265/30/19 £140.00 each, including tyre valve balancing and VAT. The wheels are off the car so I will have to fit them myself, but I reckon that's a pretty reasonable deal.

I got my vredesteins from Camskill via an internet order. Just checked and it looks as if Chemix are almost exactly the same price.

I think that's an incredible price for a full set of new high performance rubber.

Interested to see how you get on the vreds. I've warmed up to mine a little now I'm used to them.
