was just wondering would we be able to organise a group buy for tyres?

They have group buyes on the MX5 forum, it seems to work ;)

yea i seen that there quite a few forums that seem to do this, i think we should to, cause everybody wins :y ;D

I would agree 'but', it can only work if the deal is with an 'outlet' ie ATS or Mytyres, because tyres are such a personal preference.
Me, Nangang NS2s £55 fitted, 25,000miles , just changed to four Federal, 'Hero' Milanza HZ1, 225/55ZR16 95W £54 fitted (£216 total), excellent reports from Japan, seem ok so far.

micheldever tires where keen to offer a deal on 6 Dunlops, 4 for myself and two for another member. Didnt happen in the end.

They are big. Massive warehouse. Huge turn around of stock.

shame we can not buy whole spare/repairs cars from auction site and auction all the parts between us :D :D :D

Can see that working myself I'm afraid  :(

As much as I would like to see this, doubt it would work given the varience in tyre sizes required, let alone personal likes dislikes and the logistics of transporting the tyres throughout the UK after purchase- and storage in some poor unsuspecting OOF-ers garage meantime!

Best way would perhaps be a discount link/agreement to an already national chain.

Anyone contacts with QuickFit NTS or similar?  Remember, national means throughout the UK not just 30 miles from your home address in deepest darkest wherever....   ;)

it would be such a pity if it didn't work

Good idea in theory, but would it not place a fair amount of responsibility on, and demand quite a bit of time from, the potential coordinator? :-/ :-/

yea i no it would but would it also not get the forum more active in group activities, and in general increase the forums popurlarity due to word of mouth?
