hmm...if we do get the tyres, how much would fitting and balancing be?

i would be interested in 205/50/15 RE001's,

or maybe some of those S-Drives/A Drive R1's

195/50/15, rwf

Yeah I'll be keen to find out a price but right now I'm not sure I will have time to get them before christmas now

I'm heading off to Tassie on Saturday

ok made the call

205/45/17 $265 each or buy like four sets and that makes them $255 each
195/50/15 $180 each or buy like four sets and that makes them $171 each

to get the cheaper price need to buy same size tyres if sizes are mix won't be any cheaper

Waste of time mate, they aren't looking under the bonnet....or in the boot. You should have spent the time polishing the seat adjuster handle...........or some other knob. :mrgreen:

Not unless you're heading for the Parthenon Milk Bar.

Is there a known price for 205/45/16s?
And if I can get them quickly, is it too late to enter this show and shine thingy? With new tyres and my new slave cylinder, I may just have a chance here. Surely no one else will have such a clean slave cylinder, and technically its not under the bonnet. Not checking the boot will be even better, no one will notice the baby seat in there!

Well spotted Spy :lol:

I have just made a quick phone call, and have sourced new tyres, probably too late to get a nice shiny slave cylinder, or baby for that matter.

Am having the underfloor airbrushed (with flames) as I type this.

Any other tips, I must win this trophy, otherwise my Concourse winning father will be sorely disappointed. Must keep up the family tradition
