215/40/17 Toyo Proxes T1-S are £75.50 a corner from www.mytyres.net including VAT and delivery. You then just get them fitted somewhere.

Tried this, but couldn't get anyone round here interested in fitting, balancing, valving for less than £10 per wheel, adding £40 to the price of the tyres! Some were quoting me up to £16 per wheel!! They must have mistaken me for someone who w@nks in public, as they obviously thought they'd seen me coming!!!

I assume you've looked at these prices http://www.scoobynet.co.uk/bbs/threa...hreadid=103753

Also worth trying Micheldever.

I just got a set of 4 x 16" Toyos all in for £290 from Selectatyre. Also it is claimed that Kwikfit will price match the mytyres.net price.

Phil,
Try Mike Stokes tyres in Ashley Road Parkstone, no promises, but he did a good deal for me.

HKS - I have just replaced mine with Michelins, Not many people round here sell the Toyos, you will get the Goodyear F1s and Kwik Fit may price match.

I went to Tyre land in Ashley Cross in the end, they are good and will match too. Were cheaper than Bathwick and Mike Stokes, Bathwick usually being the cheapest.

Worth a try.

If you are removing any half decent 17" Toyos can I have two of them , I have two dodgy ones that I would like to replace in my set of track tyres, dont need much tread 2-3 mm would be good. Will collect if you are local to Bournemouth sometime.

Cheers,
Rich
