Hi all, I need four tyres for my Ford Focus, where would you recommend on the Wirral for either new or part worn?
Any advice is appreciated.
Pete Hi I got my last lot from Asda online, it was 2 years ago but the prices were good on the different brands, book them online and fitted at a garage all in the price,fitted at a garage near you, worth a look at prices.

Top Gear Tyre Centre in Ellesmere Port are spot on. Always busy and in demand which is a sign they're good. Very reasonably priced as well. Yep, +1 for Top Gear Tyres.

must point out that the danger is from second hand tyres, what is known as runners { part used } Why? The tyres are examined inside and out unlike the tyres when you buy a used car. In the trade, part-worns are exceedingly cheap and plentiful, a seller isn't going to risk his reputation and investment selling dangerous tyres when he can get good ones easily. I've never had a duff part-worn tyre nor heard of a real person having a problem with them. With radial tyres it is exceedingly unlikely that the core can be accidentally damaged without leaving visible evidence on the surface.

Depends on the seller and how quick they want to make money. I went to Direct Tyres a few years ago for a part worn. It failed the MOT. I took it back, they replaced it, but put it on backwards.
