Just make sure they are the correct tyres - ES02's I believe (check Neils technical thread).

Yep, I've checked the FAQ and the numbers match exactly.

Ive heard they're good but I'm in SE London so it would be a fair trek for me, not that I'm complaining about driving the car

Would one of the rears fit in the boot? I could stick the other on the passenger seat maybe.

I used mytyres for my winter set, and found them very good.

I'm sure that I have never seen the correct version of SO2s on their site though, unless they have changed this recently.

One rear will go in the boot, and the other in the passenger seat - you'll need top remove the foam tool insert in the boot if you haven't already.
