Where to get tyres
I've heard people mention places where they can get a pair of tyres for around $300, as that is about what I've previously paid for the rear alone (and I need both this time) I would be interested in any contact information please.
I need 120/70/17 front and 180/55/17 rear. I would prefer something sport/touring as I do shed loads of Ks and want to get decent life from them.

Can't sell it with shagged tyres, don't want em to wear too much before it sells

Yes Smithy we are aware of this, however Mick The Magically gifted one will ship said tyres to said person at a possible considerable savings on said tyres, enough said


Tanya;I dont really care if people use him or not, the question was where can he get cheap tyres and Dave answered the same as I would have


(thats 4 slabs of VB stubbies M8, this also means we can sit around and talk shite about Mick as we get pissed and point at new tyres and... Ok I will get back into the Ford courier before I loose something. Jonno.)
