Aye, my Wife's 200 is thirstier than my Polestar'd 185, which itself gets in the ballpark with your B5D.

Not at Costco Sheffield as I recently had a new pair of Michelin’s from them on our XC60 AWD.
They put the new tyres on the rear and moved the part worn rear to the front axle. If you go for a different type of tyre I would expect they will want them as a matched set of four.

Interesting as it's always been a flat 'no' at Reading on both my cars regardless of what the other tyres were (same tyres). Might have to give it another try! I've always found their forced policy of rotating tyres odd too.

I think with my last car, a 4x4, I had 2 tyres fitted at CostCo Reading. It was a few years ago, maybe they have changed policy. But if they do it in Sheffield either see what CostCo HQ say, or take a trip to Farnborough, Watford etc?
