Want to put my new wheels on my car, i bought them with tyres on which are crap, i want to basicaly take my wheels off, swop tyres over and put my new wheels (inc my current tyres) on the car and sell the old set!
Do garages do this service? I mean im technicaly not buying anything, so will they be fussed?
Estimated cost?

Its quite expensive here.
For 18's or 19's it costs about £12 - £16 a wheel and you'd be getting 8 done.
Probably best to phone around, our possibly driving round and see if you can get a deal some place.

UR Tires in Slough will swap you tires then do the tracking for about £30 which isn't too bad.
