What size are you after?

Hi Cypress,

I see Kwik Fit have 17" for £145 online at the moment.

Lots of recycling uses for tyres (re earlier comment). Try http://www.treehugger.com/sustainable-fash...mecha.html or http://www.the-south-asian.com/april2002/R...iture.htm. There's a young British designer making chairs from old tyres hand-covered in leather, but I can't offhand find her details.

Thanks for the tip off, unfortunately I need 18" rather than 17" Sad

Central Tyre got mine for me within 3 days. £135 each fitted and balanced. Payment on card showed as stapletons so must be linked.

The 19" Continetal Cross Contact UHP fitted on mine have the M+S on the side wall, I was not overly impressed with the traction on the snow compared to the Wranglers I had, yet they are classed as a summer tyre Question
Also along with the posts on here it seems very hit and miss on the wear rate.
