Desparate for tyres Exige S2!

[davejavue]

Anyone know anywhere that has a pair of A048s for the rear of my S2 Exige in stock. I have been waiting for 3 weeks to get them from Lotus dealer locally and he "expects" them on January 6th.My tyres were down to the canvas 3 weeks ago ( obviously not using the car now officer ). Very desparate so would appreciate any info.
Thanks guys.

You can get AO48's from any tyre dealer but the ones supplied will not have LTS logo on the side. There is some debate whether the 2 compounds are identical, but I have not found any difference between the Lotus supplied ones and the tyre dealer supplied ones (similar price)...

Cheers

Thanks for help guys. Just Emailed M S Cars and waiting for reply.
I have tried tyre dealers locally but no one can get them ( even without LTS on them ).

I telephoned them first - thanks for the number.
They asked me to E mail the request. I'll let you know how I get on. Fingers crossed.
