RE: PRICE INCREASE EFFECTIVE 01 APRIL 2024

Bridgestone has made the decision to implement a price increase across all Consumer and Truck tyres.
This adjustment will be effective from April 1st, 2024.
Note added by Cockpit Tyres: Although no mention is made of Firestone directly, please note that this increase may affect Firestone pricing as Firestone is a brand of Bridgestone (since 1988).
The revised price lists will apply to all undelivered orders as of March 30th, 2024, regardless of the original order date.
Should you have any questions or require further clarification, please do not hesitate to contact us.

PRICES ARE VALID WHILE STOCKS LAST!
How long are prices valid for?
Example of the Cockpit Tyre Card
Imported tyres (and local tyres) manufactured/imported by Michelin, Bridgestone, Firestone, Goodyear, Dunlop (the better known brand names) are usually valid for 2 to 4 months at a time. We post notices about upcoming increases on the tyre info blog.
All other tyres listed are only valid for the month in which the price list was issued, e.g. if real life it is July 2022 and the tyre price is listed as Price Validity: May 2022 Price List (or no validity is quoted at the bottom of the tyre card, i.e. it is blank) - then this price is no longer valid. It does not automatically mean that the price has increased, we reserve the right to confirm the price with the tyre supplier before we can supply you the tyre.
Updating price lists is an ongoing activity, there are so many suppliers and not every price list is released on the 1st business day of the month, sometimes it takes a week or two to get the updated price list. We can call and check pricing on individual items at any time during business hours.
We will always do our best to supply the tyre at the price it was listed at, we reserve the right to decline an offer if the tyre cannot be supplied at the price listed if the Price Validity is not from the current month that a client is enquiring in.
If we have the tyre in stock we will supply at the price listed even in a new month, this will be evaluated at the time of sale of the product.
