Step 1. http://www.mytyres.co.uk
Step 2. Buy Eagle F1's
Step 3. Squeel with delight!
(Step 3 is optional)


Actually......

Are you sure thats the right tyre size, becuase you are very limited by what you can use. If it is correct, looks like your stuck with the Toyo's with your budget.

as mentioned above you are limited with that tyre choice.......... but they do look great and loads of extra clearance on 16s!!
have 195/40/16 toyos, when old tyres removed and these added there was a big difference on clearance under my arches.
paid 240 quid for set of 4 balanced and fitted.

Check this link
http://www.camskill.co.uk/products.php?plid=m4b0s461p3328

Have heard PZeros are good and they're 260 quid for a set!

I used this site to buy my front tyres, Falken 512s, was a good service and they came pretty quick!

Only thing is you'll have to pay to get them fitted.
