    Pls Close

    yep, Chris does a great job...
  4. Ok, I was thinking they had new tyres 'at times' but yes, 2nd hand are their specialty. As for Semi Slicks - I spoke to Michael today, they do stock them - mainly 17s @ approx $100 per tyre (but I'm not sure on brand or % tread/quality) I thing they import new stock every month or 2 - if they don't have what you are looking for, they may have something in their next shipment. hope that helps... good luck!
  5. Let me know how you go But don't discount the 2nd hand tyres... with 70-80% tread, at the right price... you can't go wrong! I'll probably be back out there tomorrow - I'm looking for front tyres 234/45/R18... I'll ask them about semi-slick while I'm there.
  6. Hey Dave, I think their site it back up... not sure if they do semi slicks but pls post up here if they do! (or don't) - maybe they can order them?? also, for the tyre shops, I think they sell tyres in batches eg. minimum of 20 tyres. could be good if a few guys get together... kind of a 'group buy' maybe? just an idea! could be helpful for the drift guys...
  7. it was working - try the link again in a day or so... when I was there last week, they said they were updating their web site. OR try give them a call.
  8. Ok, the website (below) has all the company details, but here's an overview… Treads International – Their main business is importing USED tyres from the US. But they do seem to have a selection of New tyres at times. They wholesale / suppling used tyres to many of the tyre shops around town. The deal I got… 2 x Bridgestone Potenza S03 265/35/R18 – approx 70/80% tread Retail price approx $475 per tyre -- Price I got from Treads, $80 per tyre Obviously they range in price – quality of tyre, size, tread, etc – I think somewhere from $80 to $100 per tyre. But you'll need to check with them. They DON'T fit tyres - I got this done at Bobjane for $15 per tyre. I've only dealt with these guys the one time, but they seemed very helpful. --- They are NOT a SAU Sponsor or associated with SAU in any way. But they are happy to sell tyres to people from SAU at a good price!! (Dealing directly with the wholsaler ) Treads International Pty Ltd Address: 17 Robson St Clontarf Qld 4019 Telephone 07 3283 5134 Contact: John Swarbrooke - Mobile 0415 812 922 OR Mick's Mobile Phone Number 0407 812 946 Web site: http://www.treadsinternational.net/index.html If you mention the 'Skyline Forum', they should take care of you!
