Hey guys,

I was just reading through the Tyre thread in the Suspension section and noting the pricing. I'm after some Hankook K-104s and apparently the price you guys got was $160 for 235/45R17. I went shopping around today for tyres and the pricing was no where near what was in that thread.

So I'm just wondering where do you go for such good prices? You'd have to know the owner for that price I'm guessing?

Thanks :)

I went looking for tyres last week - amongst the quote was K104's in 255/40/17 for $315. I've ended up going where I usually do - Trackside Tyres in Kilsyth. Falken Azenis RT615 $365. I was quoted $425 for them at the same place as the K104s.
WTF!!

$315 for 17", i paid $300 for my 19's.

Hence why I walked out the door.

The Tyre Factory in Mitcham.

235/45/17 K104, about $180 each fitted

Tell them you know me (Pete), speak to Dennis.

Problem solved,

Problem is already solved - I wanted to replace my Azenis with Azenis and Craig came up with the goods once again. I think $365 for Falken Azenis RT615 255/40/17 is a very good deal.

I usually buy my tyres from Tyrepower in Sunshine (On McIntyre Rd). Great service and its one of the only places in the area where you can get a wheel alignment on a low car with a kit.

I payed $220 for 235/40/18's for my 180. ;)

Im after rears

Hankook K104

255/40/18

prices please ;)

Correct me someone if I am wrong, but I have a feeling that problems happen wit 255/18's on skylines.

Not sure if it was a 34 ting or Skylines in general, but was a driving issue with these - if only a speedo accuracy problem.

265/35/18's were the go.
