Getting some for the 16th July by any chance mate??

[siksII]

haha i have been slowly accumulating!

so far i have (on the cheap!!!)

stock r33 rims two have different tyres and two have no tyres

some old 16 inch tyres to put on the rims with no tyres that i bought for $20 (both)

now im just looking for some matching tyres for the other two wheels, but if not i guess they will have to do, they are going to get destroyed anyway

i dont want to kill my new expensive front tyres on my 17s so ill run the shit tyres on 16s all round i hope i can keep the car on the skidpan

what are u going to use on the skidpan?

put some good tyres on the front, otherwise your car will understeer like anything. The back ones will heat up and get grippy, and the front wheels will just get pushed and lose grip.

your front tyres don't get worn much because they should be pointing in the direction you're sliding

hey mate thanks for the info, i have been to the skidpan before so i know what your saying

i have found u still end up eating up the edges of the front tyres, and i would like to have the extra front grip as you say but i dont want to ruin the edges of my new front tyres

Just make sure you have over 38psi then for the pan.

Ill just be using what I've got - Dunlop 3000R's

[Guest Mashrock]

i've gotten onto a person who has semi's used one race.

in size 255/40(ish)/17.

going out to pick up a few sets this afternoon. will return with information and cost and how many he has and condition for you if you like.

[Primordial]

I'd definitely be interested!! Please keep me posted!

[Guest Mashrock]

$600 a set (4)

see photos.

i think i will head out again this week and get a set of dunlops aswell. as hes saving a set for me.

tyres shown are yokohama ao48's

the photo of the single tyre is probably the most worn that i have.

i.e. they are pretty damn new.

i can grab more if anyone likes.

sizes are 255/40/17, and i beleive some 235or225/40/17

I know, this sux ass... Someone needs to make a second hand semi slick tyre store.

Bah.. Its cheap ass yeah, but I dont really want to pay $1500+ for tyres to use ONLY on a track
