Price for the Dunlops was at my local tyre depot Welland Tyres, always competitive on price but probably won't suit if you're no where near Lincs.
DO NOT BUY THE FALKENS, that was the last tyre I had and they were crap to say the least and I only got something like a 25 quid per tyre saving over the Dunlop TTs which wasn't worth it. One positive was they lasted forever to the point where I just wanted rid. Ultrac Centros look the best bet for around the £100 mark if you can get them... probably gone up though like all tyres lately. Nankangs will be over a hundred soon at which point elastic bands might be better.

Ultrac Sessantas get an incredible write-up too on www.tyrereviews.co.uk/

Had a real supply problem a month ago though on the Centro and the Sessanta as they were back-logged on making winter tyres for the Euro market but should be ok now as they gave me Late March early April as date for purchase.

Nexen seem to be the new budget kings, less than 90 quid a corner fitted and good reviews.
