Angry OH GAWD!!!

Just picked up my 05 STI from its 10,000 mile service. Good news £200 (inc VAT)

Bad news I need two new front Potenza RE070s and apparently Subaru UK haven't sorted out the supply chain for these tyres yet!!!

Surely I am not the first person in the UK needing to replace RE070s...am I?

Bloody marvellous...what do I do now?

Help me please!

Might be worth checking whether Powerstation have got them in stock - I'm sure there were lots stacked up the other day.

Sounds like about £45 too much for the service too...
