    I just got wheels with tyres to replace my existing ones as one was buckled beyond repair, it was cheaper to get a different set than to replace the damaged one.
    I want to get the new ones balanced and put on so should I expect to just pay the normal balancing price as it's the same labour involved ?

    You will pay for them to change the wheels too, probably about €40 or €50 all in but prices really can vary.

    I pay €60, i.e. €15 a corner, to have my summer tyres exchanged for winters.

    My tyres don't need to be changed though, just old wheels off and new ones put on after balancing.
    I paid €7.50 a corner last year to get them done

    I recently paid 50 for tyre rotation, balancing and wheel alignment.

    Well, wheel alignment itself costs 50 quid in many places.

    I think I paid €70 myself for two axles. I'd like to know the name of this place that does the lot for 50
