"Interesting most members say their local Toyota store tyres for free. Is this because either u have service plans or bought tyres from Toyota?" Usually because you have bought tyres from them. Not all dealers offer it though e.g. my local Mr. T doesn't (mind you their tyre prices are also uncompetitive compared to Lovetyres, Mytyres, Oponeo etc. if they offered a free tyre hotel it might make a difference to me).
