    sounds ok if it was tracked. Though I am sick of everytime I ring about tyres, they throw in tracking and jack up the price and harp on howits a waste getting tyres without tracking! Unless your car feels bad, there is no point paying 50 euro on tracking every time.

    What tyres?

    For a yaris, I'd say €120 for 2 good mid range tyres, disposal of your old ones, balancing and then 4 wheel tracking for €40 quid sounds fair.

    id just get them on camskill and try find the cheapest tyre place to fit them. if your tracking isnt off theres no need to get it done regardless

    Impossible question. If you got sunny xxx Chinese crap then yes you were had. A good branded tyre then it's money well spent and not a rip off.

    Without knowing the brand of tyres it's impossible to know. A car is simply a car to some people, same with tyres.

    Tracking usually 40-45, that makes each tyre about 60 incl fitting.
    Fair price I think, depending on what tyres you got.
