    Try here mate: www.mytyres.co.uk


    They list them at £121.30 each (£485.20 for 4) and that includes VAT and delivery in the UK ! Then just get them fitted and I'm sure you can get that done fairly cheap - I paid £38 at my local ATS to swap over a set recently and that included fitting/valves/balancing - so I make that around £525 altogether

    Bathwick Tires

    Don't know if you have a 'Bathwick Tires' depot in your area, but I had four fitted a few weeks ago for £410. That includes fitting and balancing......and valves.

    *WARNING* - Thread Resurrection!

    Hi

    Just thought I'd say I've been looking at a new set of tyres for my EVO8 Enkies 235/45/17s if I remember correctly. Best price if anyone else is looking also I found is just under £350 from www.valuetyres.co.uk and www.event-tyres.co.uk

    Probably will buy them a couple of 100 miles before the ring trip (Easter), get em bedded in driving over there and off I pop.

    Anyone else found any better value than I have?

    Take a look at Vredestein Ultrac

    I fitted a set of Vredestein Ultrac tyres to mine about this time last year.

    They are stunning to look at in profile and the tread is like something from a Batmobile.

    As you'd expect from Vredestein the wet weather grip is fabulous!

    They've done about 15K and there's still 4-5mm left, so longevitiy isn't a problem.

    The only downside as I see it is they cost me £110 each fitted and you might have difficulty finding a supplier.

    You'd probably be able to get Sportracs for yours as I think 235/17s are available and they are supposed to be even better than the Ultrac, though probably more expensive too.

    If you were looking for 19s then i would guess there would be a pretty big differece in price.. KiwiTT was looking at standard 205-55r16s, which is bound to be cheaper than 19s because they are more common, just how much cheaper though i dont know
