I paid £49 fitted and balanced each.
Good tyre for the money, better than a lot of the others at that price IMO.

i personally buy tires that are only really good in the dry anyway, as you shouldnt be driving like a loon in the wet imo.
the only good use that good wet tyres have is that they can stop you quickly in an emergency in the wet if a kid runs out for example. But as sad, if your not driving like a loon in the wet then it wont be a problem as you will have plenty of time to stop for such a situation on any tire apart from a slick maybe.
thats just my thoughts on the matter anyway.
