    www.etyres.co.uk was the place Skii recommended to me (I'm pretty sure)- I haven't got round to ordering from them yet though.

    not bad for goodyear eagle f1's, 235/40/r17's, quite a chunk of rubber too...

    I'm going to get a new pair of runflats for it (The previous owner ditched the factory runflats on the front for a pair of Kumho's), far safer for me now I'm doing long journeys more..

    Careful with run-flats. A site (think it was Tyre Rack) did a comparison with performance run-flats against regular tyres and they did not come out well!

    Just ask yourself, how often do you get punctures...

    Had a big one friday, and seeing as there's no spare in the mini..
    Runflats should at least get you to where you were going without having to spend ages sodding about with an RAC bloke..

    Micheldever Tyres in Winchester, Malvern Tyres in Gloucester or Just Tyres anywhere

    Micheldever are cheap enough that Autocar use them always. For my current tyre needed they quoted me £10-15 per tyre less then any other garage. Just Tyres will do their best to match any quote you get. If you're not near Winchester get a quote from Micheldever and use it to beat Just Tyres down. They are usually happy to get very close and the bigger garages have on-site laser tracking so are worth checking out.
