even at 170 pounds, that equals $306! I paid $260 for my powers, mounted and balanced! Sounds like tyres are a bit more pricey over there?

EVERYTHING is pricy over here If we buy stuff from 'over there' we have to pay 17.5% VAT & 8% import duty

Have you never heard of "Rip-off Britain"

Have you ever heard of Rip-Off Oz?

By far the cheapest i can get them (fitted and balanced) is 380.- (160.-£). But that's 100.-$ less than most places.
