Where do you guys buy these from?
It's different place almost every time wherever I can find what I like and for the money I am prepared to pay even better if it is not far away so that I can save on postage and often they offer free fitting. Unfortunately I don't have much choice locally. Last old stock unused set was delivered from costastyres.co.uk I can also recommend dmtyres.co.uk for second hand tyres. You can also try cheapesttyrescoventry.co.uk but my experience was not that great with them, we agreed a price on the phone for one set then they wanted a lot more when I came over to buy and the guy I had spoken to on the phone was not there, after long negotiation again we agreed on the price in the middle that was acceptable to both of us. We also on agreed a price on another set for second set, came round week later to buy and they again wanted a lot more and different guy again, this time we could not reach agreement so I took my business elsewhere.

I've asked for the exact date code which I'm waiting for, but what would your thoughts be and why?
Have not had any winter Pirellis as set or for a long time, only an odd tyre for short period of time. They were either single tyre the on car when I bought it and replaced shortly after or just in the boot as spare tyre so I cannot judge them. But summer Dunlops that i have had got hard with age and lost grip.
