I'm looking to buy a set of 185/80R15 tyres with a speed rating of 110mph. Has anyone any recommendations?.

not yet,I thought these would be common to other cars apart from the Rovers.

Just had a quick "Google", can't see 185/80x15 but 195/80x15 seems to be available through most manufacturers.
Since the 60s, on the many different cars I have had (VW,Vauxhall, Fords, Renault etc,etc.) and many different makes of tyres, I think Michelin have proved the best all round.

Camskill are an amazing resource for odd sizes and competitive prices.
