Agreed, one question are their certificates for return worth it?

In my experience- yes. They don't really hassle you at all about it and they just ask that you buy the replacement certificate again (though I think per their contract you don't "have" to). $18 to replace a $175 tire wasn't too tough of a pill to swallow.

Welcome, congrats on your purchase!

They sell "tyres" in Europe, but not in the US. In the US, they sell tires. You have to specify so we can tell you on which continent you should be making your selection for a suitable outfit.

The reason I ask is because your location is listed as "kent". Kent is an English town, and it is also many small US towns, as in "Kent, Washington, USA".

I don't know if they have Discount Tire (Or Discount Tyre) Direct in England, but they are a good outfit here in the US.

There's also Discount Wheel Warehouse. They'll even let you finance your tires and wheels with horrible credit. You basically just need a job and a checking account.
