How much will it roughly be to get the tyre off my old wheel on to my new wheel?

Were these private local garages? I was just going to go somewhere like hi-q.
I take it that £40 was for all wheels not just one?

If the wheel is off the car already I usually just go into a local tyre place and ask the tyre fitter directly if he could quickly swap it over for a fiver

aye both wheels are off the car. It's just a case of removing the tyre from the broken alloy and putting it on the new wheel.
Cheers lads

Ripped side wall or something, wasn't really listening. I didn't check the tyre over before going
