Have a look on ebay. I bought winter tyres from ebay recently for both of our daily drivers, and there were plenty on there in the size you want.

Hi Diesel do nicely
Sounds good to me exept for the cross section 180 might
be a bit too wide. I only want them for the back end,but you say that the
size switches the ABS off above a certain speed,well most of my driving is on
motorways so not sure how I stand. I think that I will keep looking for the
correct size. Thanks for the offer
