Try here, I used the Fareham branch and they did me the whole exhaust excluding the manifold for £97.

The steering judder would most probably be caused by unbalanced tyres. If it's under breaking then it will be warped disk/s.

As for the tyre wear, this is most probably due to the tracking being out.

All of which can be sorted when they are fitting your exhaust!
