Anyone know if Cycletreads do price matching?

Really?

I fit and balance tyres (that I supply) for free.

Yeah mate, but I bet you're not selling a pair of Michelin Pilot Sports 180/55 and 120/70 for $385 now, are you? How about Pirelli Diablos at $399 or Diablo Rossos @ $449?

Hmmmm..........

Considering those prices are below my buy price then no, I'm not.

That is the reason I have always fitted and balanced for free - as a means to try to compete with shops with far greater buying power.

DPC fitted and balanced a tire I supplied for $24 (ride in, not a loose wheel). This included disposing of the old tire. This was after i told them $19 was too cheap.


I'm sure treads were about the same last time I was there too - within a couple of bucks.

+1 for DPC I recently rang around for tyre prices for Pilot Road 2's for my SV650S and they were the cheapest and the service was some of the best I've had, from the free coffee from the cafe across the road to the $10 off for travelling from the other side of Auckland.

I will definitely be going back there.

Strange, 'treads and DPC are usually the sharpest around. Sure the cheap place wasn’t pricing a Pilot Power? I'm sure 'treads will match.

...on that, what about Power’s instead? They’re $100 cheaper a set, the same profile, and mostly the same rubber.

At the risk of turning this into a DPC love fest … they're pretty friggin awesome. Give Mike a call, he'll sort you out if 'treads can't do anything for ya.
