Hi everyone,
I am currently looking for a set of Toyo Proxes T1 S tyres for my Polo. Size should be 195 45 R15. Does anyone of you know where I can get a set with a reasonable price? The cheapest I could find is £40 each including VAT. If I can get them online would be even better, if locally its got to be in Sheffield... Many thanks for your help in advance. Cheers
Kind regards,
Samuel

me and my bro have both used
www.mytyres.co.uk and have found them to have a very fast service and they have a really wide choice!

give auto dynamics in attercliffe a ring. I've used them twice now and they've always been the cheapest.
to be fair tho' £40 is pretty bloody cheap!

No problem at all to me... I do believe 195/45 R15 is the standard tyre size which recommended by Volkswagen if you are using the BBS Solitude. Have u lowered your 16v or anything? If not, that should be spot on.. What tyres do you use anyway?
