I was just browsing the net last night and tyresales popped up. Its part of the carsales group and was quite interesting.
I liked that I could just put in my car or tyre sizes and get an idea of what tyres may cost, instead of calling or going in person to ask for a price and then be hassled into buying. From what I can gather is you order them online, they deliver them to a local dealer and then you go there to get them fitted, correct? I was wondering has anyone used this site before? If so, how did you find the service? |

i haven't used that particular site, I've used tyretrader.com.au order 2 Kumho KU39s for $187 each and had them delivered to my house in about 3 days, Had my local tyre place fit them.

I used Tyresales about 12 months ago and got a great price, the same tire now is a lot more expensive.
Costco seems to have good prices with known brands. |

I used them recently and I can't fault them, good price (4x 19" Dunlop sportmax for under $1000 inc fitting) and service is good.

The prices seem a bit dear. I do know they include fitting, delivery and a tyre roadside assistance. I'm looking at getting some KU39's and here they are $243. Best price I found is $172 delivered. Plus then about $20 for fitting and I already have full roadside assistance that comes with the Ford service so I'm saving around $130 when buying 4 tyres.
Pick the tyre you like and then shop around. Plenty of good deals out there.
