I had been speaking to that mob from ebay before I put this post up, they had 2 225 45 13 on ebay for $530.00 but if I bought over the counter on site they would only drop the price to $520.00. The other thing was they could not give me the same pattern in 215s and if I put 225s on the front of the escort it might be like driving a steam roller on the street.
I was put on to a US company that can do the R888 225 45 13 for $162.00us but once again no pattern match for the fronts.
