So:
136.50 + fitting + transport to and from your local tyre shop + time = what exactly.?
or:
160.00 for Holbeach, are at every NE round, can and do: fit tyres quickly, overnight, last minute requests, pay later on the phone, bring them to the rounds with your name on them. And supplied a free set for end of year prize in 2007.
Pirelli fund the club's DD trophies and we run their tyres and stickers, no harm done to anyone.
IMHO If I was back in DD again, I would run NEW tyres at every round, the difference between new and used tyres is worth a second a lap, easily. Any tyre that lasts longer, by definition may not be up to that mark.
Can we race yet?
