Are you sure?

I remember paying £230 for a pair of 2CT's 15 years ago and they were the most expensive pair of tyres I'd ever bought. Before them it was Pilot Sports at about £180 a pair.

Am I sure, pretty sure, but not 100%, it was a pair of Metzelers for it, the 190 rear was stupidly expensive.
