I have allways used Tyres Northampton (even when i didnt live in Northampton).
I used to have an Audi A8, that had 255/55/R18, and they were £55 cheaper per tyre than anywhere else i tried.
So I'd say its worth calling them even to get a price that you could get a local supplier to match.
They put a complete set on my disco last year for £520.

I really need them yesterday, picked up new car, replacement alloys *as I took off the 22's as part of the sale* are original equipment RRS TDV8 Stormers so right load but the tyres on it are barely legal and 275/40/20 which are too thin for a Disco IMO.
I have found some 275/45R/20V General Grabbers UHP with 110LR just around from my office for £115.04 + £12 each.
Will these work, are they rated and what is the price like?!

Got a set of Hankooks, 275/45/20v XL rated fitted and balanced for £535 incl VAT from Steve at ABC in Cheltenham. Recommended highly.
Quick easy service.
So far, quiet on the road and a clear empty car park allowed me to test them in the snow, so far so good. Great traction and a more comfortable ride.
So far very pleased, with more snow on the way tonight I may have to test them tomorrow!!
