I just used E-Tyers for my car. Their prices are ok, but the best bit is they come to you to fit them which is good

When your dealing with the only thing that holds the car onto the road I tend not to buy cheap budget stuff

New design proxies £95 for a pair of 195/45/16. Taking my old locking bolts off as i lost the key, tire fitting and balancing cost me a bottle of Jack Daniels

Got tyres a couple of times from wheelbase on e-bay. Apart from sending me t1-s's instead of t1-r's they're a great company to deal with.

4 proxes 4 (great tyre) for £160 delivered

Proxes 4
