couple of weeks ago they were about £115 (all in) for falkens.

pirelli's (& bridgestones i think) were about £150 which i think are definitely worth the extra !

Be careful if you are fitting these to a GT. Not all tyres are the same size even if the have the same numbers on the side. A PZero will fit if you are using the correct (ET53) offset but a Bridgestone will not.
The same may apply with the tyres you are looking at.

With 8x18 Compomotives, I don't think any tyre will fit without modifying the rear arches to some extent.

Another possibility for 18s is the Yoko AVS Sports in 225/35/18, very sticky stuff! Give Ronnie a call at Wheels Around for a good deal on these... 01764662897

Cheers,

Pat.

You may have to modify the rear arch to move the lip out of the way.
