Got mine off ebay. The seller was called putyourfootdownagain and I would recommend them. Paid £285 for 4 195/50 R15. www.camskill.co.uk are also very
competitive

Heh - you might want to beef up the protection under your arches and possibly extend them with R888's
I fitted them to my elise and have some on the kitcar ready for when I finish - and on the elise, I must have collected every single stone on the
road. 
Awesome tyres you won't be disappointed 
They do 2 variants - normal compound and super sticky - I have the 'normal' so feck knows what super sticky does - probably rolls up the
tarmac 
Also - another slight oddity with them is that alough they say 195 wide, they're actually 200 wide (just in case you're tight on the
arches) - it's just a pecularity with the R888's - or so the dealer led me to believe - they are wider than the T1S's though by
about 5mm

If you believe you're not crazy, whilst everybody is telling you, you are - then they are definitely wrong!

Try your local tyre place (not qwikfit a proper tyre fitters!)
I was quoted £64 each fitted and balanced for 195/50R15s R888's (the softest ones as well) by my local tyre fitters. Which I thought was
incredibly good.
