I bought 2 225/45/17's off mytyre.net for £83.40 each. Struggled to find a local garage willing to fit them as the RE040's are hard to get off. Found one but charged me £17 a tyre to fit/balance etc. Took him nearly 1 1/2hrs to do!

Ordered my next 2 from www.etyres.co.uk for £111.90 each which included mobile fitting and balancing. Come to slightly more but saved me the hassle of driving around finding another fitter (guy said he wouldnt do anymore lol). 2 guys turned up and took them no more than 30mins in my driveway and not a single mark to the alloy. You also get a free puncture repair which they will come out and fix FOC so the extra cost is justified in service etc.

Apparently if you ring up to order you might get them slightly cheaper than the next price, so he told me
