Dunlop sp01 245/40/18 MO

[Fats25]

A bit of a long shot, but my car that is soon being handed back to mercedes has decided to receive a puncture today. In the sidewall so not repairable.

As above car goes back in approx 6 weeks, so would ideally not spend out £160 on replacement tyre, unless I really have to.

If anyone has what I am looking for, please let me know.

Thanks

I had looked at Ebay - but they were all runflats. Also I was not sure if I required the MO mark or not, for returning the car. After speaking to Mercedes this morning, they do not care re the MO mark, providing the tyres are correct size, and rating, a "premium" tyre, and matched across the axle.

After a wasted journey from some joker on Ebay I managed to get the tyre I was looking for from Elite in Essex, who did me a massive favour and found one. Only 25% used for 30% of the price, so am made up!

One more question - any ideas where you can purchase the small space saver tyre? The guys at Elite seemed to think this would have to be through Mercedes themselves. Any experience?
