    I have just got sava's to destroy on the 1/4 for seting up the car

    195/ 45/ 15 front @ £32 fitten and ballanced
    155/ 70/ 13 rear @ £27

    yeah Kinda mate. I can get hold of Uniroyals195/55 r13 .

    I cannot fit them I can only offer mail order. At which point postage would be a cost.

    Its incredibly difficult to be competitive. I would want to sell this tyre at £53.13.

    Re: Most common tyres used across RTOC??

    to be honest man, i think the tyre market will always be difficult to tackle with online sellers getting cheaper all the while. My friend is the manager of national tyres and he cant get me tyres cheaper than the internet and thats at there trade prices.
