Can anyone advise? I can find possible sellers, but no UK on-line prices

I had to ring northants to get a price, but said it would take a few weeks and was cheaper for me to bring in straight from summit myself and pay the shipping and duty too, depends what tyres your looking for.

Try chris at wasp, usually good price , 7 day delivery to your door, on all parts in stock in the states, some mickey thompson sizes hard to get at the moment for some reason I might have to try a different make this time around

I dont think you will find any UK on line price lists though, will have to phone

Yes thought so. Much nicer not to have to say, 'How much...?' and waste the nice man on the phones time! That said, Hausers have been very efficient and helpful when i've spoken to them.

I bought some M/T front runners from a subsiduary of northants tyres, all they sold were M/T's tyres, they had them in stock and the price was good.

Rich/Mick what sort of money? I thought postage on tyres from the US would beheavy.

Hi Mate.
If memory serves correct..tyres were English monies after conversion 2 tryes Hoozes quick times 275/60/15
£175.00 and then £40 customs charge.
Hope this helps.
Rich.

Thanks Rich, that would be affordable for the odd drag strip fray.

Postage is the killer, i looked into tyres from the US and postage was around $150 snail mail, then you've got vat and handling at this end. There aren't really any savings here but you get them within days.
I will dig the number out and pm it to you.
