Does anyone have these fitted to their car and what do you think? Also, what is a reasonable price to pay for them?

These will be the 195/45/16s for my SRi rims. I've been quoted £60 per corner including all valves and balancing. Sound good?

If the offset is correct how would they scrub? Is this an accurate prediction? These tyres are for the standard Corsa Sri 16" wheels.
