   Have a look at Falken tyres from Protyres of Plymouth - they are really good, and in 17 inch form on my 2.8 Z3 have more grip than I have bottle! Some typival prices are:
225-45X17 = 85 pounds
235-45X17 = 90
245-40X17 = 95
205-55-16 = 65
They may be quite cheap, but Falken do not dupport F1 racing, hence the sensible prices. Lots of grip in all conditions, sensible prices, and long life - on the Z3 fronts last for over 30,000 miles, and rears for over 20,000. On Heather's 115 bhp Golf TDI (putting 210 lb-ft through the front tyres, plus steering and conrering) fronts do 12 to 15,000 and rears 30,000 miles.

	If you're in the South west Bathwick Tyres are usually pretty competetive. Worked out �20 cheaper for Bathwick to supply and fit two Pirelli P6000 225/55ZR16's for my 540 than mytres.net's supply only price. http://www.bathwicktyres.co.uk
