Easy..........

£££££££££££££'s is the answer!

I see from my beemer forum that the price of winter tyres has shot up quite a bit over the last few months, with standard tyres not far behind....and got to say I got stung this morning when the 'budget' tyres I usually look at have gone up nearly a tenner each.......

Anyone else noticed price increases on new stock?

do i feel a two fingered salute coming on?
who will inspect all of this?
mot testers can but that is once a year, they will have to create a lot more jobs just to enforce this if it happens.
that will cost millions of the hard earned tax payers money and i cant see that happening, so i think it will be left to the mot testers.
if it comes into force we should all chip in and buy a set of "eco" tyres and borrow them around us all when our mot is due
