mytyres online seems to be very competitive, it's who I am about to use for a pair of rears. If it suits you they will deliver the tyres direct to a selected fitting bay near your location. No affiliation.

Hit me up for a ship quote. We ship worldwide daily and the prices are usually cheaper than people expect.

In order to complete a shipping quote overseas, I will need the following information:
The product description of what you would like to order. Sizes, manufacturer, model name, etc.
The year, make, and model of your vehicle.
Your complete billing address and phone number.
The shipping address and phone number, if different.
With this information I will submit a quote to our shipping department. A return shipping quote with options will generally be returned within 24 hours.
Regards

I recommend taking the Tire Rack guy up on his offer. For some reason, over the years, I've noticed that prices in the U.K. tend to be the same in pounds as they are in the U.S. in dollars. (For example, a used Ford Focus might cost $9,000 here but 9,000 pounds sterling in the U.K. (which is $14,400). I think part is the British taxation system. Don't know how Tire Rack calculates British taxes (if any) as the "sale" would be made in the U.S. If you watch the tv series in the U.S. (Auto Trader - with Mike and Ed) you notice that the cars as well as the parts Mike typically purchases for Ed's repair work) all seem at least 60% more expensive than equivalent parts in the U.S.
