Buying tyres abroad - Richard
Has anyone had any experience of buying tyres abroad, particularly France? Are they cheaper?

You can buy tyres in Supermarkets in France, Yes they are cheaper than here, and they are identical. Michelin, Pirelli etc. Its also cheaper to have your car serviced in France.

Pop over for a weekend, stock up on booze etc. what you'll save will pay for the trip
