Hmmm. Prestige Tyres in Busby seem the cheapest so far at £48.

I got my 15s from Henry Bros - they actually were competitive! Also an advantage coz they know how to jack up the car, and how not to scratch alloys...

Try Performance Tyres - Anniesland 0141 954 9344
Have not tried them for Mini but very good prices when I had the Golf 1.8T

A fear that comes from owning Classic Minis - which, if jacked up by an average Kwik-Kitter, suffer a permanently buckled floorpan!

I buy mine on the internet at £35 or so each then get the local Kwik Fit to put them on at £7.99 per tyre (inc balanced & new valve) - works out much cheaper then any local tyre co. can quote me.
