I'm in the process of trying to convince a tyre importer to bring in some semi off road tyre like the tkc80's . However he wants to know what the real world prices are in these UK market at the moment. Looking on the net but if anyone can help I'd appreciate it.

I find this site good to check prices:

I pay about �110 (incl postage) for a pair of Mitas E-09 from Trellesport.

I bought a pair of TKC80s for my Tenere recently (admittedly an 18" rear, but the prices of the 17" rears are pretty much the same)...

As I recall the front was just under �60, but the rear was around �100, and in fact had just gone up but my local shop did them at the original price they'd quoted...

TKCs are not cheap, but as an all-round (geddit?!) tyre, I think they take some beating, especially when you consider the mileage you can get out of them...
