Yokohama A048R

[akcwong]

Anybody knows where is the cheapest place in UK to get Yokohama A048R with "e" mark on?

So far I found 215/45x17 AO48 = £123.69 + VAT each. Any cheaper than this?

I thought its not possible to get 'e' marked Yokohama Advan tyres as they were made only for the Japanese market.

I run these tyres on my Elise, but obviously different sizes 195/55 x16 F 225/45 x17 R, £600 for a full set, so I doubt you will get them much if any cheaper. The rears last 6000 miles including 3 trackdays generally on an Elise, the tyres I use have a specific compound for the Elises, so a harder compound might be needed for the DC5.

The Advan and the A048-R are different tyres, the Advan in Evo 8 sizes is drip feeding into the UK now.

Got mine 225x45x17 for £138 each inc. VAT and delivery.

Just changed the fronts to Dunlop Super Sport Race, wish I had stuck with the Yoko's again.
