CamSkill for tyres?
Has anyone used CamSkill for tyres on here?

I'm thinking of getting some from them, just wondering if they are good to deal with?

Hi Ian,

I've only used them the once, I normally use black circles but there was a delay SK ended up using camskill. Not a problem, would recommend from my experience and would use again.

Camskill are pretty good, it definitely pays to shop around on 4x4 tyres. I think my last set came from oponeo

Whilst I agree in shopping around, I found my local tyre shop was only about £7 per tyre more expensive which included fitting and balancing. So don't rule out the local man Thumbs Up James

Completely agree. Around here it’s becoming more and more expensive to have pre purchased tyres fitted too, around £15/tyre minimum so it absolutely pays to visit your local man. Even if they aren’t cheaper, you’ll probably save overall!

Cheers guys,
Our local tyre place (who we use for all our work vehicles) and they always do series tyres at cost for me,
But Couldn't do anything on 5 BFG ATs 275/75/16.
They were £148 each.

A quick search found that I can get a better deal elsewhere.

I've heard people talk about CamSkill, so I googled them last night, the images on Google maps showed some really rough un signed industrial units, that all looked a bit derelict?

I was a bit weary to hand over a heap of cash, after seeing that!

I didn't think about AJS, will give them a try too.
