Shopping for tyres and came across this deal. Cashback also available for other brands.

I just changed all 4 tyres at Bob Jane T Mart, 205/55/16- Bridgestone Ecopia EP300, paid $387, works out to be $96.75 per tyre. $75 for all 4 wheels alignment (I didn't alignment done at Granville Bob Jane as their alignment machine is down, Ryde Bob Jane have 3 in-stock as today, Castle Hill Bob Jane have 8 in stock as today but need an appointment for Sat work)

Called up Kmart Tyre to price match, they are able to do $367 for all 4 tyres, works out to be $91.75 per tyre. $65 for all 4 wheels alignment.

Kmart works out cheaper plus collect flybuy points, but the downside is that Parramatta branch doesn't have Bridgestone EP300 in stock and needa wait for 2 days.

    My local Bob Jane ran out of EP300s and offered Pirelli P6s for the same price. They seem to do well in the wet, compared with EP100s that I have on my Audi.

      that I have on my Audi.

      Will they be good for my Maserati though?

      • MustResistPurchase on 24/03/2018 - 17:24

        Maybe. Depends where you put them.

      • UNO on 24/03/2018 - 18:20

        You have a Maserati JV? I thought you drove a BMW.

      Go outside, write down the numbers along your tyres. Search on the bobjane website. Bob's your uncle!

        Unless you want to do a tonne of research to select a tyre I suggest you can either get the OEM specified tyre or go with Continental. They are consistently good whereas even premium brands can sometimes be hit and miss. They only cost a little more than cheapy tyres, and they often have buy 3 get the fourth offer.

        • JC1986 on 27/03/2018 - 22:09

          I ended up getting 4 Bridgestone Ecopia (1 for free) and paying $827 including alignment and inflammation.

    • bmerigan on 25/03/2018 - 21:18

      Best for what?
      Best tyre would be the one with the most grip right? A track tyre, wears out quick though.

      Tyres are a compromise between grip - longevity - noise.

      Rhetorical q anyway. Just get the one the manufacturer supplied - it's going to be a good balance of every category.

  • Jamesx on 24/03/2018 - 17:28

    Costco has 4 for 3 bridgestone too.
    No alignment,

    • [Deactivated] on 24/03/2018 - 17:36

      Alignment costs around $70, so take that into consideration.

      • rooon on 25/03/2018 - 06:49

        Got mine discounted to $55

        • plague69 on 25/03/2018 - 12:41

          :/ You guy know you can take one Bob Jane price to another bob Jane right? Normal haggle is 20% off alignment on the spot cos they give you a book for it when you change your tyres. Just say you lost it or something.

  • Harryxx on 24/03/2018 - 17:47

    That sounds really cheap. I got pirelli from them on my xr6 for 800$. Wonder if I got ripped off.

  • DarthPyro on 24/03/2018 - 17:49

    To my understanding, this has always been the deal.

  • Laziofogna on 24/03/2018 - 18:59

    Bob Jane is a pioneer. Really, to offer a deal like this when no else has done it it's pure genius.

    • [Deactivated] on 24/03/2018 - 19:37

      Normally it's smoke and mirrors and you end up paying the same price you would have anyway.

      I've noticed that when Bob Jane do it that it is a genuine offer.

    • plague69 on 25/03/2018 - 12:42

  • 2fiddy on 24/03/2018 - 19:27

    Looked up michellin tyres. Only offer $100 cash back ?
    Any good run flats deals ?

    • ebosh on 24/03/2018 - 21:36

      Depending on what car you drive, I'd get rid of the runflats altogether. With a normal tyre, you'll find performance is much much better in both wet and dry, they will be quieter, and more comfortable. The reality with runflats is that in a lot of cases they can't be repaired anyway.

      • 2fiddy on 24/03/2018 - 21:54

        i think you might be right, it was raining pretty heavy today, and i could felt the back tyres gave a little bit when i was taking a corner. What would you recommend ? Michellin PSS ?
        i drive a 228i

        • ebosh on 25/03/2018 - 08:25

          I was going to ask if it was a BMW. My dad used to have an M135 with PSS's on it and traction was always great unless provoked ;). They are probably your best bet. I've heard good things about Bridgestone RE003 also. I'm currently running Pirelli P-Zero on my Golf R, and I'm not a fan. Grip is just OK and they are loud. I should have sprung for the Michelin's.

        • 2fiddy on 26/03/2018 - 00:41

          @ebosh: so michellin PSS it is then. i wonder if they do promos on those

      • Some Guy on 02/04/2018 - 17:05

        If you get rid of run flats, be sure to chuck a spare tyre in the boot or wherever. Or be prepared to pay for a piggy back….

    The Bridgestone deal is not a Bob Jane specific deal. It's available at all authorised retailers.

    https://www.bridgestonetyres.com.au/current-offer

    Shop around for the best price!

    I usually get my tyres from Donellans and find that they have great service and prices.

    Just bought a set of BFG K02’s at Bob’s (285/65/18) great price and great service
    Price on par with eBay prices but included fitting and alignment - $392each

    • plague69 on 25/03/2018 - 12:45

      Even with the current 10% off? :D :D :D

      • HsvPete on 25/03/2018 - 20:55

        I’m regional WA so freight is a killer on any online tyre shop . Bob’s Joondalup WA didn’t have stock when I walked in off the street but took my number and had the tyres in store ready to fit in 60min.
        Best face to face service iv experienced in ages.

        • plague69 on 26/03/2018 - 00:50

          I do also prefer my local Bob Jane because of quality of service.

          Freight is astounding. Perhaps when drone deliveries are a thing…

  • Oofy Doofy on 25/03/2018 - 09:56

    Same deal running with Dunlop Goodyear tyres. Proof of this is advertised on their website. Can buy through any tyre place of course.

    I can personally recommend these tyres https://www.kumho.com.au/tyres/passenger/ecsta-ku22/

    Never had better tyres than these. Pirelli P7's and Dragonsports are right up there, but still not as good as these Kuhmo's IMHO.

    I bought through K-Mart as they beat even the quoted 'best price guaranteed' from the online retailer you'll come across with google, even supercheap etc … and ability to get Flybuys points with the purchase.

    Bob doesnt share any prices for their tyres on their website. I hate anybody who says give us a call for pricing bullshit.

    Buy 3 get 1 FREE offers are everywhere. Much like 20% on eBay for selected retailers.. How is this a bargain?

  • zooter on 25/03/2018 - 18:35

    How is this better than Tyresales.com.au which seem to have similar prices + free fitting/alignment?

    • Oofy Doofy on 25/03/2018 - 22:50

      Kmart will handily beat them without much issue. Alignment is not free, neither is fitting and balancing.

    • ProdigyShin on 26/03/2018 - 02:13

      @zooter I did check the price at tyresales.com.au, they are offer similar price + some fitment centers offers free alignment + free car wash too :) But I am not sure if the fitment centers charge labour cost for fitting the tyres.

      • zooter on 26/03/2018 - 17:34

        If you search for a fitment center on tyresales, here is the text:

        ========================
        Tyresales.com.au makes buying tyres easy. Your tyre purchase includes fitting and balancing at one of our fitment centres, choose from over 1,750 fitment locations Australia-wide.

        We also offer a Free Wheel Alignment for 4 or more tyre purchases, or a Free Car Clean for 2 or more tyre purchases at participating Premium Fitment Centres.

        so I think fitting is free…and you get alignment as well for 4 or more tyres..

  • Mandalorian on 25/03/2018 - 19:43

    Nice..
    Do we know how long is the deal for?

  • Lord Ra on 27/03/2018 - 06:31

    I still have 3mm on my tyres. Should I be buying tyres now or wait for later? I run about 25km per day

  • wanj on 28/03/2018 - 13:49

    Doesn't apply to run flat tyres
