New tyres

[Apache]

Just ordered some of these, amongst other things because they look pretty cool and were a good price for new tyres! Anyone else got some?

They are a Serious Tyre !

Mate fitted them on his double cab absolutely no complaints at all

[avalon]

Ive got some 'cheapo' 50/50's from milners they seem pretty good , not that ive had much time with them cos shes in the garage having her head done

[TonyN]

Got them on the 4Runner, work just fine and we have 2 years of motoring on them now with lots of tread left.

They are no BFG M/T's, but bundles cheaper so value for money is great.

Pops,

Mine are 265/75-16 and are £77 each inc vat and delivery. Struck me as a bit of a bargain considering similar looking remoulds are around £60 + postage.

They look like Hippo's feet

had them on mine for 6 months and i think they are fantastic - a real bargain, keep wishing they would show some signs of wear though to justify a bigger set !

They look exactly like mine, only mine say Colway C-TRAX on the side and they were only £42 each!

Really pleased with them on and off the road and would deffo get another set if I ever needed to.

They came with the surf when I bought it - I am pretty sure they came with the surf when it was imported. Not seen anything like them available in the UK.

Grrrr! Muppets!

My new tyres *should* have arrived yesterday but there was no-one in to receive them so Interlink put a card through the door. I rank them (Worcester branch) to ask about picking them up, and the chap said "the three tyres?"

I said I wasn't driving a bl00dy big Reliant Robin, what happened to the other?

"thats all we got mate"

Ringing the shop, I got the answer that 4 had been sent, and the responsibility is with Interlink. Back on to Interlink...

"It's probably been misdirected mate, it'll be here tomorrow."

Soooo, I rang when I got home from work today.

"Thats the three tyres is it mate?"

Back onto the shop.

"Definitely sent four mate! Try Interlink..."

Got the tracking number off him. Interlink have four tyres. Ring interlink again...

"The three 4x4 tyres mate?" Oh for ****'s sake! Get number for Interlink Carlisle.

"Yep, four tyres sent to Worcester yesterday mate" But only three there I reply. "One must be lost mate"

By now I'm getting very p*ssed off, so he checks out the route tracking and discovers the four tyres left Carlisle, four arrived at Birmingham, then only three arrive at Worcester (next stop).

So, where's it gone then? "Must be lost mate" he says. "I'll get onto Birmingham and see if they can find it"

About 4 o'clock he rings back. "It's gone mate. They cant find it. We'll mark it as lost. It might turn up"

SO I ring the shop again, tell em Interlink have lost the tyre. Shop chap says he'll do some chasing up and get back to me. (Yeah right, I'm thinking)

6pm, he rings back, tells me Interlink have lost it. He'll get another one in tomorrow and get it out to me on Monday. What a nice man!

So, a partial 'big up' to Camskill Performance to be verified on Tuesday. If the tyres arrive, I'll sing their praises unconditionally, but beware of using Interlink. Anyone who can lose *one* of four tyres all marked the same and in the same shipment cant be the sharpest tool in the box!

[da SLUG man]

stuff goes missing all the time!!

it's a big operation you know...

they'll go to a local depot... then get sent back to brum and routed correctly.

depending on the local depot... they might just sit it in a corner for a week!!

[Apache]

All well and good, but if 'stuff goes missing all the time' maybe they should try to get their act together.

I suppose it's all part of being British, accepting cr@p service.
