Does this seem about right?

[drive2tractors]

Just finished the rebuild after nearly three years and the final piece of the puzzle is four new tyres. My local tyre company has quoted me about £500 for four Toyos.
I have found these online and it seems to be quite different:



Is this too good to be true or about the right price?

What are pxt-1rs? Not normal TVR fare.....

Think they are the old T1S

Supply only?

You'll need to add a bit for fitting and balancing

I noticed that you're in Kent. Try Will's mobile tyres. He'll normally source, fit and balance for a similar price, plus travel to you. I've used him a few times: http://www.willsmobiletyres.co.uk.

Pxt 1r are proxies t1r tyres but that is very cheap. If its legit you have a bargain but check carefully. How old are the tyres? Etc

I bought 2 16 inch Toyo Proxies for the fronts and it was £137 delivered. They were from Camskills not all that long ago.

Your local company is sticking a big mark up on them, That's quite a cheap price but you've got to pay somewhere to fit them if you just buy tyres. My local bod does me 215/40/17 proxes for £86 a corner fitted.

225/50 16 is the standard fitting

They're a straight company.

They supplied my R1Rs.

Thanks for all the help, have found a local co. who are going to try to get close with a fitted price.
