Hi all

The rear tyres are continually going flat, indicating side walls etc starting to go (they've been on a while and the rubber looks 'flakey' in places on the sidewall).

I'm hoping to get a pair of tyres fitted by a mobile van - not too keen to drive to a garage with flat tyres! - but I've not used any before. Does anyone have recommendations for any in the Bath area?

I'm also keen not to break the bank, I note that many garage-based fitters offer budget tyres that are sub-brands of reputable companies, are these OK for what is essentially a second car? Wear really doesn't bother me, as the tyres are more likely to perish than wear, but obviously I'd prefer ones that grip the road!

All advice gratefully received.

Eta: Picasso is Exclusive manual 1749cc on an 02 plate with 185/65R15, rated H88 on alloy wheels.
