How're you managing that?  When I looked the other day I found them for £80 each. Maybe that site wasn't as cheap as they thought they were though

Got a pair of paradas for £80 next day delivered and was really impressed with them, awsome in the dry but dont last long if you a bit heavy on the pedals. In the wet they are ok (better than the ones i have now) but you do have to be careful
Im looking for the best tyres 195 or 185/45/16 any opinions wanted. Sorry to highjack
