Just ordered a 120/70 and 170/60 pair of Michelin Pilot Road 3's.
£162.68 delivered from Tyreleader.co.uk which is in .........Germany!
http://www.tyreleader.co.uk/
Way, way cheaper than anything else I could find in the UK.
They seem to have good online reviews but let's see if/when they arrive...

I liked them when I had then fitted - good tyres - good grip wet and dry - wear rate is very good

I used Tyreleader when buying winter car tyres - fast delivery and cheaper than anywhere I could find. Just check the date stamp - they often stock old tyres, although to be fair, they put the date stamp on the advert for older stock.
Date stamp is the week of the year followed by the year - this one will be the start of April 2011

Well, tyres came Wednesday, one week from Germany to Scottish Highlands!
Date of manufacturer, Week 41 of 2014 so no worries on that front.
Now fitted and ready to roll...
