Just put 4 on mine but not driven yet! Excellent prices,i think mine were from Camskill-very cheap/quick. I did a bit of research and could not seem to find a bad report on them,oh and they are zr rated.

Fantastic tyres, running 265/30s on my 19" wheels, cost £160 a corner - still cheap as chips for the quality on offer.
