Spot on Lorne and they put you in the VW polo tyre size so because of the volume sales they are all way cheaper and you get a fantastic choice of premium brands. My last set of five were just under £350 and the 65 profile revolutionised my ride with no apparent losses compared to the 60 profile, normal road use though, I don't track my car as sometimes I like to take it out the next day!

Thanks again all. It seems Toyo no longer make an R15, gomog is spot on!

Thank you gentlemen. I am a buyer at the moment. Though they have low usage since I moved to the Andes, what's on the car are 10 years old. The only thing worth buying in Canada now is Pirelli P6000s (incidentally the original Plus 8 tyres) with a long wait. And they are $500 cdn per... So I need feedback. I have more choice buying such quality, (especially with all Canada's new trade deals) from Longstone rather than locally in Canada, and I do not want to ship tyres up from South America (where 15 inch tyres in every make or quality can still be had). Canada is a desert for the right or even, now, in 195 65 R15.

I've recently fitted Hankook Ventus Prime to my plus 8 having been recommended by my garagiste, they're ace. Good grip dry and wet and a better ride than the Toyo Proxes I had before. I'd have had the Toyos again if they'd been available but very happy with the Hankooks.
