I've looked at Blackcircles, Camskill, etyres and lovetyres. So far Camskill are the cheapest (tyre size 245/40 R18 97Y) with Goodyear F1 Asy 2 at £127.29 delivered per tyre. Anywhere else I should look?

All four tyres between 2.4 and 4mm - three Dunlop Sport Maxx one Pirelli PZero - so figured it's probably worth getting some new rubber on there.

Cheers
 
As around local tyre shops/fitters. My local one supplied, fitted and disposed of the old tyres cheaper than Black Circle quoted for just supplying. They also ordered the tyres directly from the supplier to ensure I got new rubber not some that had been sitting in some random warehouse for months. Worth the legwork if you can find a decent shop locally.
 
Thanks for the replies all. Funkytyres appears to be currently down temporarily but I've emailed them just in case. MyTyres were more expensive and the German one, it's actually the 97 load rating that's recommended in my handbook so I intend to stick with that, which pushes the price up an extra fiver (still a few quid cheaper than Camskill) - but Tyre Leader are the clear winner with a sale bringing the price to just £118.89/tyre including free delivery which I don't think I'm going to beat!

I think I'll buy those tonight before they change their prices (and free delivery is only until Sunday).
 
Just used Tyreleader, cheapest price, excellent service and fast delivery from Germany. In fact, I saved so much in my choice of tyre and their price that in pretty much paid for alloy wheel refurbishment which I had at the same time and they swapped over the tyres.
 
I've had F1s for the last 3 rounds.

Wondering if the grass is greener (quieter) with the Dunlop SP Sport MAXX RT...?

Part of me wants to try the Pirelli Cinturato P7 Blue just to see how many more miles I could get!

Any one tried either and used F1s to compare? :)
 
I am awaiting delivery from Tyreleader too.. Tracking from Germany and free delivery if you purchase 2 or more tyres! Excellent service so far!
 
Just to reiterate, sportmaxx aren't as good as the eagle f1's they're OK but considering they're the same money the Goodyears are a no brained for me
 
Please don't shout at me... But... eBay? I have 225/50/17 all round on my Astra, £100 a tyre, or can get a pair of 225/45/17 for £77.50 ;) so just waiting for those to be delivered..
