Default Where is the bast place to buy tyres?

Where is the best/cheapest place to buy a set of

195/40/16 tyres for my cossie wheels?

Can anyone suggest anywhere and a decent make to go for?

So far I can only find continental and toyo tyres are there any that are better?


Thanks peeps

Ive got a set of 4 Toyo proxes on my Golf when i bought it last week and there superb, really grippy and they have a rather cool looking tread pattern.
I may need another 1-2 soon so ill definatly be matching them up with the same

What are the wheels going on. I used to have 212/40/16 tyres on my escort cossie wheels. I used to buy good year tyres and they used to be 75 quid a tyre.
