Quick question/ your experiences/ opinions

My S1000RR M sport came supplied with OEM Metzeler Racetec RR K3s fitted.

I am changing my tyres to Pirelli diablo rosso corsa 2 , (ive had them before on all my bikes & personally I love em)

Purchased the Pirelli tyres without fitting & have been Looking at the tyre fitting options as I will not trust any old fitter with the carbon wheels as we all know these wheels are massively expensive.

I Will get my BMW local dealer to fit buy curious to see what you guys have been doing as regards tyre fitting options around Hertfordshire & any trusted fitters you would recommended in this area.

Cheers all

I get a local mechanic to do all my servicing and tyre swaps (well I say all, I didn't ask him to service my Gen3 not will I for the Gen4 as he can't plug into them). Known him for years and he's always done a good job. The really crazy thing is when I found out that 35 years ago he used to work with my dad on the buses.

Been thinking about this scenario myself... I think with the carbon rims I personally would be staying with main dealer... if they damage them... they can replace them

I use a very well respected tyre fitting business not far from me in Malton. They look after all my vehicles and plenty of other people?s exotics, they are well used to fitting rubber to expensive wheels without issue.
