TOYOs look good and are a good performer. These are 185/65/15 I had to get this size cause I only changed the fronts and the rears are that size.

what model type are they mate? there's so many to choose from! whats the most recommended?

Thinking Getting these : PROXES T1-S 195/50 R15 82V Rim-protection

The Proxes T1-S is Toyos top-of-the-range tyre for sports oriented drivers, replacing the existing Proxes T1 Plus tyre.
The tyre, which is available in V, W and Y rated fitments, matches its predecessor in dry handling, low noise and wear resistance but offers substantially improved wet handling and aquaplaning performance.

4 @ £130

Good Choice or not?

You can post 2 15" alloys with the Post office (not parcel force) for £10.76.
So 21.52 all in.
You can sometimes get away with using www.parcel2go.com and pay the £10.80 for up to 25kg and they will take the whole lot!

£175 without tyres, not a bad deal I wouldnt have said. About the going rate?
