Tyres?
 
Morning everyone,

Does anyone know of a place to buy tyres (Cheap:) ) in the Benidorm area?

Is there equivalent of Kwick Fit! At the moment I have been advised Carrefour at Finestrat....


Any bright ideas?

Carrefour sell tyres, but you will still need someone to fit them.
Just look out for an "Auto recambio" place on your travels. They fit tyres, exhausts, brakes etc, as well as selling spares.
Tyre prices are far cheaper than the UK, so you can normally find well known makes such as good year, firestone etc cheaper than you pay for "cheap" Asian imports found at kwickfit.

Most supermarket buys will have a garage connected to them and will fit for free, our Al Campo at Motril will do just that. Obviously that is just a tad too far for you to drive:lol:

Be carefull to fit tyres that are all the same, and i dont mean just size i mean manufacturer and type.
Problems can occur if you go for an ITV and you have odd makes of tyres, i know not all ITV centres are the same but the one in Granada will want to see 4 x identical tyres otherwise its a fail im afraid!
