avon tyres any good?

I've just ordered some tyres for my new 18 inch alloys and I've only asked for 2 and the price is an astronomical £280 there avons aswell which are mid range is this a good price? Or should I cancel the order.

yeah they're nice shoes too. i just got rid of mine to replace with the dunlop direzzas and the difference was pretty noticable as far as bumps and turning.
