I'm a great fan of Tyron bands. They saved me from a nasty accident when a tyre blew out on a previous van. I have them fitted both to the caravan and our tow car.
After contributing to another thread on Tyron band I was checking out the prices paid for replacement tyres and Tyron bands for my Avondale Landranger, twin axle van last year. I had the bands fitted to the van which was new to me when I had the tyres changed.
The price I paid was a REAL BARGAIN compared with what some folks have been quoted by caravan dealers. I thought that this information could help to save some of you a lot of money.
We had 5 bands (13 inch wheels) supplied and fitted - we did the spare wheel too, in April 2004.
The price was £34.01 per band for each wheel, or £170.38 FOR ALL FIVE. plus £5.88 for the "customer care kit" (Basically an extra long Allen key which you give to a tyre fitter to enable him to remove the band if he needs to remove the tyre to repair or replace it.)
The company Tyrecare of St Helens (www.tyrecaresthelens.co.uk) is a Hi-Q network member and so there is probably one of their members near you, wherever you are.
Regards and happy caravanning on Tyron Bands - I'm not on commission from Tyron or my tyre dealer by the way.
