A few years ago most (any?) tyre shop would mount a tyre for you for a few $. With the increasing use of "mail order", the going rate seems to have increased to around $30 per tyre.

All the shops I have asked include fitting and balancing in their advertised tyre price. BYOtyre and you pay the full fitting rate.

Cheers, Ian

Yeah we have them...Yokohama Australia is not interested in this tyre. I have also changed the minisport ad on the website as we have plenty in stock.

The tyres did go up on our last buy in but we kept them at same price (which is quite fair) with the GST/duty and insurance we HAVE to have when we sell tyres.

All the best,

I ordered 4 x A008's from Andrew today, for once a very competitive price compared to importing from the UK when you add the UK freight
