Oh boy, not so funny as I got mine from Kwik-fit too.

They do work an official price match policy (within 10 miles radius), so I always ring Watling Tyres in Catford (cheapest anywhere)get my quote . Then the local Kwik-fit match it.

I use one on Sevenoaks Road nr. A20, guys are O.K. Their tyre man runs a mad R5T hybrid, which he has just taken off the road to fit rwd cossie lump & running gear (yep in the R5).

Good Luck

I got F1's for my STi7 from Micheldever in January. They're 225/40-17 I think but I only paid about £350 for 4.

It would appear that 225/40's are cheaper than 215/45's, more applications presumably. Would 225/40's fit on a WRX?

Or was it just that Micheldever are so much cheaper than everywhere else?
