But they used to hover around the £50 mark for years, which is where a tyre that wears out so fast should be IMO
Good to know.. I assume they'll only go up as that profile (205/55/R15) is slowly getting tougher to find.

I'll be getting the new NS2-Rs for the E30. Had NS2 on multiple cars and wouldn't hesitate again.
Wow, that's a hardcore pattern. :eek:

How is it on the road or do you trailer your E30 to the track?
I've not got them yet! It's mainly a track car but is used on the road.
