    Hello,

    Need to two new front tyres for my copen, called 4 local tyre fitters, 2 have the Bridgestone Potenza's on back order, 1 has stock (but pricey) and Kwik Fit called head office to be told they are a discontinued size!

    Also asked my local Kumho dealer and apprently there on back order also in our size. Nationwide Autocentres let me order two Bridgstones online but i have not yet had confirmation that they can actually get them.

    All slightly worrying, especially if they are discontinued. Anyone know anything more?

    I got mine from ATS Euromaster, although it was 18 months ago. They might be worth a try though.

    Cheers folks, think it was just Quick Fit lying (no suprise there), got it booked at a Nationwide Autocentre, booked through there website it worked out £48 per tyre, fitted and balanced, not a bad price i reckon.
