Another bargaining chip is to offer to take the old tyres away and if your old valves hold air dont get them changed. Just take the old tyres to the local recycling center and they will dispose of them f nowt!

As an aside I would not buy 'cheap tyres'

I would however buy good tyres cheap!!

Never scrimp and 'save' on the bits your life depends on!!!
