national tyres barnsley but I think I'm just gonna buy online for £145 + p&p (if the p&ps no more than £10) and get them fitted for £15 at my local. Save me driving to barnsley.

mine was a loose wheel price, everywhere I've spoke to says a tenner difference between l/w and ride in/ out. So knock em down a fiver and you're at the same price.

aii seems a fair enough price tbh, and its closer to me than protyre which may be cheaper but petrol money would hike it all up! I'm going to pop in next week, will return with my satisfaction rating...

ditto, tbh I'm only trying them because everyone swears blind they're the best thing ever I'm currently on d208rs that are about £100 a pair but wearout after 4.5k-5k ish. and they were sticky enough, but they're the only tyre other than stock I've had on the sv so want to try others. Funny thing with the dunlops was though that the front and back wore at the same rate.

My dunlop front is going all pointy, but little tread left on the corners which needs to get sorted ASAP. Back isnt too bad but fancy getting them both done at the same time! Kinda fancied some Pirelli's, but everyone thinks these storms are best thing since sliced bread as you say

aye. my front dunlop cracked and perish it little in the 2months it's been on but I'm going to put that down to the possibility of me dripping a bit of brakefluid on it whilst changing the lines.
