its all down the the exchange rate alot of tiyres are made/bought in europe, was talking to the owner of the local tire place with the exchange rate against the euro clapsing from 1.3something to 1.06 a couple of months since the prices have rocketed i know its gone up a bit again so prices will fall in the future but the tyres he gets in were ordered by suppliers 4 month since so were at the lower rate.

lets all hope the euro crashes and the £ gets stronger

he recons its put about 20% on the price which looking at those prices is right

110 for 2 to 130 is 18%

Scott maybe try contacting skittles or skittle, forget which it is now, on here, she can get hold of yoko track tyres and offer a discount on them that retailers cant, might be cheaper

all tyre prices have gone uip of late, but 888's have gone up massively. Almost to the point that the better 048 is the same price/cheaper.

CALL camskill, they are pretty much the best price in the UK at the moment for 888's and Adams&Page for A048's (unless skittle can do better)

The only way you will get them for £50 is if you get part worns lol
