Desperate for a couple of rears - anyone know of someone with a pair on the shelf?

I have a puncture and I am immobile.

All too far I am afraid. Westover have some on order for me and the nice man who came over and put new booties on the poonjero plugged the hole in the lotus tyre. Not an ideal solution but it will do 'till Wednesday.

Found a sodding wood screw imbedded through the tyre rolleyesfurious

Gooby, I hope Westover have some on backorder, coz the stock situation at Lotus is poor, no free stock currently showing at all.

Does anyone know why theses tyres always seem to be difficult to source. I can not beleive that Lotus or Yokohama do it intentionally, and yet it ssems to be a common occurance. My next tyre change is likely going to be all 4, and the obvious choice was goind to be these, but with this sort off supply issue Potenzas seem to be a more sensible choice

It's cos you nutters wear them out too fast by cornering too hard.

How much should a set or rears be? I have been quoted £300 and £350 fitted so far today AD07s that is. I cant see a way to buy them one place and get them fitted elsewhere boots a bit small on the liz smile
