Thought I'd share this for any one who lays their car up for a while. Just got them so cant report anything. After a recent balancing at a local tyre centre, the fitter said Id flat spotted my tyres, from being parked up a bit too long. Could of being trying to flog me new tyres and failed but thought these worth a go for £51.50 for a full set.
 
Where did you get them from? is that price per pair and what width are they? would you need two pairs for rears I have 19" Set and a 20"Set of wheels

I got them from www.hamiltongrouponline.com They come in pairs so I purchased 3 sets. 1 split across the front and a pair for each rear. You can join a pair together to cover the fatter rear tyres. Any tyre over 205 requires one pair.
 
They are more attractively priced than others I have seen. I have been putting carpet under the tyres for a bit of insulation from concrete base and inflating tyres to 40psi over Jan/Feb period.
 
Thanks for that. I have my garage carpeted so car does not sit on concrete ,stops any dust coming through and dampness also have the tyres up to 55psi but may invest in those certainly a lot cheaper than some advertised at over $250
 
Hi I see you have your tyres inflated to 55psi does this help prevent flat spotting and is it ok for that very high pressure for say 6 months
