Well I guess I'm gonna have to buy atleast a pair for the front so wheres doing the best prices ?
I guess I will have to pick up a mag and have a nose but I'd rather save the £4 for my tyres than for a mag I wont read :-
there is someone on ebay selling them at £33 each but is anywhere doing any better

Whats size? (Or can you only get A008s in 10" :- ) Try MiniSport, they've had some great deals on tyres recently!

I doubt you'll find them cheap anywhere since A008 has been out of production for about 4 years now. The stock that's left is all there is so the prices are going up.

Well I would guess it's more than 50p, tyres are heavy.


Exactly how much of a cheapskate are you? :-
