problem with front tyres SR3 (new wets needed)

[dario]

I am looking for some replacement front wet tyres for my SR3. i had the old ones removed to fit some longer valves and it has all gone wrong from this point onward. it looks like they are delaminating and there is no way i can drive the car as the imbalance i am experiencing is hideous.

tyre fitters can't balance them without putting on a Sh*t load of weights around the rims

i suppose that the tyres have gone hard ( had the car since later September) i think that the previous owner had kept them in constant sunlight on the wheel rack on the open trailer.

presently i have Dunlop fitted front and rear and i think they work fine. these are the V tread tyre pattern.

so any idea where the best place to get them is?

Radical ($$$) or Dunlop motorsport outlet (but you'll have to pretend they are for another car)

[dario]

called Radical for a price and availability on a set of wets and slicks...... bloody hell
front wets or slicks £202.11 each inclusive of VAT and rear wets or slicks 215.42 each inclusive of vat. so £835 a set...... does anybody know the name and contact numbers of where i can get these Dunlop tyres from at a more realistic cost, or am i deluded that these ARE expensive?

Help please
