Call both and play each one off the other if theres big differences in price. Personally, I would say DTAS, others prefer DMC.

DTAS give us a club discount, if DMC are cheaper, I'd like to know about it...

rang both this morning,have to say DMC seemed to be a bit more helpful,he's also looking into buying the place next door to him and opening up a rolling road and exhaust centre!!
rang discount too and waiting a call back from both!!

Got my wheels laser re-aligned there(DMC) a while back and they seemed to be naturally interested. Might be a thought if you're getting new tyres?

DTAS for me - one of the DMC mechanics broke one of my camber bolt housings and then tried to say that someone must have done it previously - even though I heard and saw him do it :-(

DTAS seemed to be a more professional outfit

DTAS have always been good to me...
They did my belts when I was stuck...they've done my brakes...they've done my track rod end..and of course my tires..

update so far is that DTAS rang me back yesterday evening, they hadn't heard from their Pirelli guy but he was just ringing to keep me posted,I haven't heard back from DMC, so we'll see what happens!!

265 a corner from DTAS, they will also sort out my exhaust too, so i compared prices to say eiretires.com and they were 240 a corner, so i reckon that's about as good as i'm going to get!! Tommy in DTAS was who i was dealing with and is bang on....

Jeez - didn't realize 18s were that expensive. Think I will stay standard for another while !!

Eiretyres obviously don't include fitting and balancing though, plus you have the hassle of carting around 4 tyres to go get them fitted, plus you have to wait for them to arrive.

by **Dave** » Wed Dec 13, 2006 3:25 pm

na Kace, they are 19's!! 215/35/19!!
that was my main reason for not bothering going through eiretyres!! plus they are going to look at my exhaust as well which is handy cos it sounds like a tractor!!
