Thanks. I tried them (10962-774437.
They gave the following prices:-
Dunlop - 415-71 fitted/balance
Pirelli - 443-91 fitted/balance

So, I shall be off to Winchester soon!

Don't get the Dunlops!!!

I had them on my last car in the same size!

They were reasonable in the wet, but not go in the dry and the grip levels were poor!!

My SO-2's before they were scrubbed in, were better than the Dunlops at their peak! The wet and dry grip levels of the SO-2's were far superior to the Dunlops.

Only thing in their favour was the wear rate! I got 23,000 miles out of them, which isn't bad, but I'd rather change the tyres twice than have the Dunlops again!!!

Just my opinion!

Andy

Thumbs up

Try Micheldever Tyres. They are by junction 8 of the M3.

Very cheap and know what they are talking about!
