Micheldever tyres do sell quad tyres and road legal ones as i got a set of 4 from them fully fitted and they were at a good price too, phone them again, they don't have any in stock, they will need to order them but it will only take 2-4 days max, as long as you know the size you want and the make they should be able to get them for you.

I tried Micheldever and they could not get any legal ones in when I needed them, Rafferty Newman were very quick and charged £6 to fit all 4 .

they obviously couldnt be bothered to help me then, i use them for all my vehicles
i rang them first thing and the lad wasnt overly interested and said he'd call me back....nothing
mid afternoon i rang them back and spoke to "darren" he took the info he needed and said he'd call me back but then said they are short of staff
after that i spoke to national tyres they said they dont do quad tyres then called me back quoting £86 per tyre for maxxis and i'd have to fit them
i then rang the quad place at quarley they said £84 over the counter so i'd still have to fit them
i have since spoken to Rafferty Newman and they have what i want on the shelf so i'm booked in to have them fitted to loose wheels at the end of the week
as you can see i was getting slightly miffed with the three tyre firms i managed to speak to (two thers wernt answering there phones)
But RAFFERTY NEWMAN came up trumps so i dont mind the drive across
thankyou Red Pred for putting me onto them :hug:

No worries, Rafferty Newman are very good, friendly and enthusiastic staff and prices are ok, all four tyres for my Pred (Kenda Klaws) came to just under £170 fitted .
I got chain and sprockets there too, as you say, the drive there and back is not a problem if you are happy with the service they provide .
