Thanks have already seen them, its £10 postage that put me off

It'd probably be cheaper to get them from Rimmer's than from that eBay trader with the £10 carriage..

Er. . . what's a tyre protector? I've looked at the items on the links and STILL can't figure out what they are.
Education required, please.

They're protectors,......................................f or tyres

After the re-call due to springs snapping, these were fitted at the base of the front springs, so in the event of a spring snapping, they were supposed to stop the broken part puncturing the tyre

Correct, I have just bought from Rimmers and just paid about £3 more all in. Problem I find with Rimmers, unless i missed something, you don't get shipping and vat added till after card details have been entered. On the other hand you have to accept that they must carry and fund collosal stocks which has to be paid for.
