Tried to find 2 new front tyres 225/45 R16 for my Corse.
Falken don't seem to make them anymore.
I had previously vowed "Kwik Fit never again", but there seems to be a lack of 225/45 R16 available now.
Wanted fitted included so looked at Kwik Fit. They listed Yokohama AD08R.
10% discount with online booking.
Went ahead and filled in all details until I had to select "my car" from the drop downs!
No chance, I could get no further. Not even a Lancia Stratos to select.
Went through the whole debacle again with the online chat only to eventually to get them to understand and give up. I asked if I should telephone the local Kwik Fit and book directly, to be told that I would not get the online discount but to "phone customer services". I asked what difference it made knowing the car when just fitting 2 tyres to wheels - no response.
Phoned customer services and explained again that the website does not have "my car" and so I cannot complete the purchase.
The nice lady said "i will book it for you online, but you won't get the discount". I said " i might as well call Halfords", she replied "yes probably". I asked what difference it made knowing the car when just fitting 2 tyres to wheels - again no response.
In the end I completed the online booking on the basis of a Lancia Thema 2l. Interestingly the invoice makes no reference to the car type.
