Sorry for the delay Ray.....€45 each delivered but not fitted (155 80 SR14)

That's not too bad then - at our current exchange rates..... No VAT to add to that?? And they are very easy tyres to fit - no worries there.

I have Nankang 155/80/14 fitted (on the car when acquired) and was suffering steering vibration so had the fronts re balanced today

1 was 20 grammes out, the other 30 grammes. Both wheels ran true, but the tyres didn't

Balancing sorted out 95% of the wobble, but these cheepo tyres have a downside and were not something I would have chosen so may bite the bullet and change all 4 for something else as I don't like the very soft sidewalls on them, especially when cornering.

I can't even find them for sale anywhere as they seem to be a low load rated tyre at 991 lbs at 32 psi max

The newer Nankang CX668 are rated at 1019 lbs @ 44 psi look to be a better option and can be had for circa £33.40 each from Camskill

Firestones are £76 each and have a lower wear rating..............

I eventually went with Toyos 155/80/14 at 30 psi ,and they seem to be pretty good so far.

Where did you get them from as I couldn't find stock of those anywhere?

All radial tyres - unless rated for commercial use - have soft side walls. You need to run them at 30 psi minimum - more if carrying a heavy load - and adjust front/back to get the handling as you wish.

I got them from Mr Wares emporium in Bristol.
