Hi Guys,

I'm clearing out stuff as I have more parts than I have money so need to sell some of my race tyres. I have 2 full sets (8 tyres total).

First set:

Yokohama Advan A048R 235/45/17 X 4

These have minimal life left. probably good enough for a few drag days, or a few super sprints just depends on how many laps you are doing. I would say around 15%-20% tread remaining, and it's pretty even wear, no flat spots, or damage, and they are not old tyres so still good rubber. Considering the new cost is ~$1900 15% would be $270 and 20% would be $360. So bearing all that in mind I'm after $220 for all 4.

Second set:

Dunlop Direzza D02G 235/45/17 X 2 and Yokohama Advan A048R 235/45/17 X 2

These have much more life left in them than the first set. The two advans are in very good shape, I'd say 50% tread left. The dunlops are in not quite as good shape, but probably 40% tread left. I'd be using the advans on the front, and the dunlops on the back as GTRs are hard on front tyres. replacement cost on these babies is about the $1800 mark. So given the condition I'm asking $330 for the set of 4. You would get probably half a dozen track days out of these.

I don't have any pics, but can probably get some up tomorrow, but given how expensive these tyres are, and how sought after if you want them, I would just pm me and make a time to come check them out. I'm not really interested in posting interstate but could possibly be presuaded but you would need to organise a courier to collect them from my door.

I'm in sydney in 2 weeks and if I have some room in the car I'll grab em. What suburb are you in and can I have a contact number.

Thanks mate.

they are in the northshore, chatswood area.

contact number pm'd to russman.

michael, freight to perth I have to be honest I have nfi (i would guess around $120 for a set of 4), but I have to give preference to anyone that can come and collect them from my door. for 2 reasons. 1. it's far easier for me. and 2. i much prefer when people are buying used consumables (tyres, brakes etc) that they get the chance to look at them in person before buying them. I don't think i've oversold them at all with my description, but I would hate for someone interstate to get them and say: "hey, these have 1.8mm tread, not 2mm" etc.

npz.. let me see if i got funds LOL! then i might pm you and go from there if you havn't sold them already :)

cheers michael

not really keen to split a set of 4, unless one of you will take the D02Gs and one take the A048s, feel free to discuss that amongst yourselves via pm. :)

the first set (4XA048) will most likely be sold tonight.

Set 2 (the dunlop/yokohama set) is gone. Set 1 is still available with a few guys circling around. first in with the dough wins. :huh:

still got the first set. need the space badly now. price is $200 flat. will be available for pick-up this weekend. even if you only got one track day out of them it's still a shed load better value than buying new ones. :P

I just got the set left out of the garage for a look see. they are better than I remember. very usable. and no damage, or flat spots, or dodgey wear on them anywhere at all. so price is still $200 flat, or I will just get them put on some rims and use them myself. so that's Advan A048R 235/45/17 X 4 for a measly $200.

I'll take some pics in a min.

May be interested depending on whether a mate is going over to sydney and could pick them up for me this week. I'll let you know.

i would't mind driving it on the street, but I probably wouldn't drive it in the wet unless there was no other way to travel. as with not much tread depth they are not the greatest in the wet. i don't know what the dates are.

    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
