Actually, I just thought, you may be out of luck. I'm waiting for a rear Storm for the Dullsville but he has been having difficulty finding one. However the Dullsville is a different size wheel than the SV so you may be OK.

Won't hurt to try. Worst he can say is I can't get them

Our favourite Border Patrol tyre fitter did mine for £177 ride in/out. Local tyre place (Buckley Tyres) wanted £210 for a pair fitted to Speedy's SV. I recently paid £82 fitted for a front. So you should be able to get them at a reasonable cost.

Been ringing around again today.
Ride-in (thanks Si) quoted £198.86, which is the best localish place so far, so it looks like I'm going to have to settle for that, unless anyone knows of another reasonably priced fitter in or near Surrey

Squared off ? , I thought that`s what they were supposed to look like :D
At least I got 5300 miles out of that D208 , was squarer than a man wearing a tank top with Nerdy glasses at a party doing Maths equations .
