How much for a garage to simply fit tyres to alloys?

[DanFreemanPhoto]

How much do you reckon a garage should/would charge to fit 4 tyres to some alloys?

I have some shiny new AD08s and want them fitted to my shiny new TD 1.2s, and balanced etc.

£20? £30?

I have no idea, but it's only a 5-10min job if that.

Our place charges £5 a wheel, as long as they're not fitting them to a car.

If they're fitting them to a car then its £10 a wheel.

And lol @ 5 -10 minute job!

My local place charges me £10 each wheel

Nah, I'll be turning up in an estate with everything in the back, turn up, fit tyres....chuck them back in the car.

I swear it's never been much longer than that when I had tyres swapped over on the Clio.

£5- £10/wheel including balancing

I paid £10 per wheel all in.

If you find a friend... or even a friend of a friend, it could cost you very little! My friend owns a garage so I get it for free but he'd usually charge around £5 p/wheel to be fitted and balanced.

Best bet is to go to your local garage and try and charm them over - a crate of beers could sweeten the deal, but that might cost you more than the job itself? lol

Oh and of course don't forget some garage's won't fit supplied tyres at all, so call around before you make the trip!

It'll look nice on the 1.2's - make sure you get some pictures up when they're done - although I guess with you, this goes without saying!

hmmm £40 seems a bit steep. I'll pop in a few places over the next week and ask.

lol of course

I haven't done a proper shoot on the car yet, so this will happen not long after I get them new wheels on

Usually £5-10 a wheel, unless you go to some high end stealership.

I pay £30 for 4, balanced and new valves

Everywhere around me charges £14 per corner for new tyres fitted and balanced and put back on the car. Never done it on wheels not fitted to anything, but I can't imagine it being much cheaper.
