Black Circles

[SynTom]

Anyone order their M tyres from Black Circles?

Prices are good at the moment for front PS4S tyres and mine are down to 2mm.

Just wondering is the service they provide good? Also should I get Black Circles to fit my tyres or should I buy them mail order?

Also for some reason, Black Circles sell two variants of the front PS4S, one that looks worse but is BMW star rated and one that isn't. Yet the rears are non-star rated.

Local stealer destroyed my alloy last time I asked for a tyre change so I don't trust them to do the job properly this time.

I've used Blackcircles a few times. They're fine. If getting them fitted (Blackcircles fully fitted price), you have a choice of fitting centres, so you can pick & choose, it's done during the checkout process. Your choice of fitting centre doesn't affect the all-in price you pay them.

I've also used them, as they offered (at the time) the best prices for both the fronts and rears. As mentioned in the previous previous thread, you can chose the garage for fitment- Thus the onus is on you to research the specific garages on offer to mitigate the risk of damage! Whereabouts are you based?

On the two different variants, just be careful you select the correct loading. If you have the non-CP pack alloys, I don't think there is a star rated version, unless it is an oem tyre fitment for another model.

Also see the thread in the link below, which was helpful when I switched to PS4S.

Thanks for the replies!

I'm based in Liverpool and it's my local dealer that managed to damage my rims last time.

I'll take a look at that thread, also any garages/franchises you'd recommend?

I usually buy from either mytyres.co.uk or camskill.co.uk which ever is cheaper on the day. Then have a really good place round the corner from my work that fits them. But i'm in Southampton tho so doesn't help you much... but mytyres can do a fitting service, so you can pick one near you and they deliver the tyres too them

If you fancy a trip to Chester, my parents have used Peacock Garage for eternity, and I used them for my old E92. I recall I think I also went to Saltney Tyres once. Not sure if either are on Blackcircles.

Chester - STS tyre pros. Great guys who offered me black wheel weights and valves for my 437m recently.

Ask for Liam.
