    S3 TYRES

    Look again!..Those are Eagle F1 GSD3's...The Eagle F1 Asymmetrics are apparently the replacement of the GSD3's..Doubt you will get Asymetrics at that price...I have been pricing around all week for Asymetrics and the cheapest so far is £96 delivered for 225/40 R18 or £108 delivered for 235/40 R18.
