As previously reported I'v ordered two Toyo Proxes for my car at £114 each and fitted at Ian Brown Tyres of Malton. I chose this dealer, nice run out.

However if I had obtained the tyres direct from Ian Brown they would have cost £94 each all in for 245X45 ZR16's! BEAT THAT!

Best regards

PS Tel no for Ian Brown 01653 690300

Chimburt,
Is this fully fitted?
Looking at mytyres as the cheapest (£85ish supply only) for Proxes 245/45/ZR16 but can't get them until at least 1st May - don't know why.
I am picking uyp some refurbed wheels from Bridgend and willing to divert.

I've got a pair of 245/45/ZR16 Proxes in my garage right now, courtesy of Black Circles (thanks Steve).

Chimburt,
Are you willing to divulge details of the garage?

Maggit,
How much did you get them for? I was quoted £114 each fitted. Now a bit more cost sensitive since the £200 spent on the OZ bolts.

which sizes though, my local place can do that for most sets of 16" but could not if 17" or above or lower profiles.

at these sort of prices I have decided to use them for my track day rims -- anything else worth fitting is so much more expensive.

I have heard that TOYO are about to bring into the UK their street legal club racing tyre called the R888 -- so next time around these may be the ones for me -- first tyres are due in the UK soon but only in a limited range of sizes.
