The tyres are being fitted @ 8.00am @ Woori Yallock (cheapest Tyrepower in Melbourne). Not sure how long it will take so I will miss this trip, but will certainly keep an eye out for the next one.

Cheers and thanks anyway.Just Do It!

Did you try The Tire Factory??

They were cheapest by far when I did mine, I also bull$hitted to them I got a better price elsewhere would they match it, and they beat it! Saved me $20 per tire :)

I am getting Kelly MSR tyres for $185 from Tyrepower Woori Yallock, $25 a tyre cheaper than Tyrepower Knox. I did search around (a very exhaustive process) and these guys gave me the best deal.Just Do It!
