Default Tyres, £50 a corner?
Okay, I know this is the one place you shouldn't skimp but setting a budget of £50 per corner fitted for a new set of 195/45/15s

The best price I can find F1s is £53 each delivered + £5 fitting, or £62 fitted from Black Circle tyres / eTyres or something.

Not sure what else to look at, had Toyo T1Rs or whatever they are called and was not impressed, I love F1s but if only they were a little less, got 195/50s fitted for £47 a corner

I hear good things about Prada Spec 2s?

Theyre good in the dry, in the wet theyre useless, and the sidewalls are awfull, theyre well soft, mine have holes in all way round the sidewall Got to replace them soon, or its opoints.
