I have just purchased two new Toyo T1-S 255-35 ZR18's from Leigh Tyres, £160 Delivered next day. Thats less than the Blackcircles price for one

How much to the tyre shop charge you to balance & fit them?

[robertjp]

I don't need mine just yet, still have some tread left on the rears, but any tyre place will fit them, i believe its about £10 a side with balancing...

They have other common TVR sizes too

So is £75 a good price for a 225/50/16 TOYO T1-S.

I need a couple for the rear end of my Chim.

No surprise here. Blackcircles are expensive by a large margin, fact. I can't understand why people still use them. More money than sense perhaps.

Yes, it is, but have a phone round to make sure - i think you will struggle to beat it...you may be able to get a price match - don't tell them its from the internet, just tell them about Leigh Tyres, sometimes tyre places won't price match from the Internet...

Yep, I paid £88 fitted and balanced and I know my friendly tyre man prices keenly.
