| Frequently asked questions |
| Why are tyres at moto-tyres.co.uk so much cheaper? |
|
The following quote sums up the reason from ADAC 3/2000 (German equivalent of the AA) "The price spans listed in the table (without balancing and fitting costs) are based on a nation-wide dealer survey carried out in December 1999. Prices listed serve only as an approximate benchmark and may vary strongly from dealer to dealer. The reason: tyre manufacturers sell their products at very different prices - Criteria such as quantity or time of order have a direct influence on the dealer's purchase price. The dealer is forced to recalculate prices to adapt to market values. Price-conscious customers should take their time to compare prices." |
