well, they cost £80 here, before haggling


So what's the problem? Gives great pictures, too.



And what sort of tyres do German cars need that cost more than £109? Top of the
line Pirelli Neros?


235/40x17 Continental Sport Contact II, on my Audi A6 3.0 Sport
Quattro. The 225/35x18 Michelin Pilots on my wife's TT are even more
expensive! :-(


OK, you are right ... I can't get a new tyre for the price of the Pioneer DVD
player here. I just checked out the prices for a tyre of type 205/R16 55, and
they cost more than £80 ...
