Sorry I got my price wrong, $580 for a pair, but still, you guys got them so much cheaper!
This was from beaurepairs at parra, he claimed it was below there wholesale price at the time. I went to buy another set at australias best tyre and auto and they wanted 600+ for two!!!
.
parra??..they quoted me 400 for both and i thought that was too much...
went to Midas at croydon/five dock and i got them for 380 for the pair...
What's the go? Where am I meant to be buying these things from, cause i love em!
Mine are 235/40ZR17 by the way, i think they're rare, or something.
Yes scarecrow... your tyres are rare... Well, not rly, but your paying more for your tyres as compared to the other guys because your running a 40 profile tyre as compared to the other guys running 45 profiles on 17s.
Generally, the lower the profile, the more they cost. Wanted 40 profile tyres for mine - for the sporty look, but couldnt justify paying the extra $$
I feel so bad, I got silverstone tyres on my fto, don't worry I didn't put them on, when it went through complience they changed it to silverstone.
I don't think they are that bad, but they do make a bit of a whining noise on the rear, I thought it was my wheel bearings but it turned out to be that the rear wheels had a lot of camber.

Not to mention they wear out faster too
Noob question, how do you check the profile of a type? is the number on the tyre?
The difference between what we do and what we are capable of doing would suffice to solve most of the world's problem.
