I'll check this weekend. Car is currently sitting in Manchester airport car park and driver is away in the sunshine! :)
Not specifically asked for. Given a price and requirements for load and grip level. These were suggested as they were on a list of accepted tyres for the vehicle.
Yes I can see this turning in to a £300 fight!
Yes.
Long established tyre specialist. They do company fleet and private fittings. Have used them for more than 10 years.
Yes they are XL's
This is not bedding in. They feel as if they are 'tucking under' the car is directionally unstable and the ESP light keeps triggering at 60 mph plus

Absolutely. In fact I have tried both softening them and running them right up to 42 psi without any luck.
On Friday we fitted a pair of Uniroyal Rainsports to the rear of our MG4 EV.
