not a bad price, I'd lose the lettering though.
We got some new Nangkang's off Ebay in Germany in that size, were about £60 each including shipping.
Good tyres actually, with good roadholding in the wet.

If these are similar to the Goodyear Eagle white lettered tyres I have. The lettering is on one side. I had the tyres mounted so the white lettering is facing inside.
The difference with these Galaxy tyres is they are the first I have seen other than Pirelli's that have a high speed rating. The Nangkangs are S rated like my Goodyears. 113Mph. While the Galaxy are V rated 149Mph.
Not that it means a lot in the real world but maybe if someone has a turbo car or intends on doing a track day...

Just reviving this - has anyone used the Vitour Galaxy R1 tyres? They look good from an EU label perspective.
I decided to go with the galaxy r1 in the end. Correct speed rating and you can mount with lettering on inside.
Also got vredsteins for the fronts, and a continental for the spare. Expensive day!
Hi all - so I got the rear tyres yesterday:
Here is the side with the raised white writing (looks cool but I didn't think it suited the Delorean):

Here is the side without the writing - this is the side I went with (white writing on inside):

Here is a picture after I had them put on the wheels and I put the wheels back on the car (angle not great as was in my garage):

I think they look great! I haven't driven on them yet - will report further when I do.
Cheers!
