Anyone know the price of one of those popular Toyo tyres are? and where to get them? I swear i' saw a thread of some one advertising new tyres for $99 a pop. Can anyone find that thread?

Which ones? The T1R's or the semi slick R888's?

Check the group buy thread for the semi-slicks.

Hey buddy, Im from Taleb tyres and we've done a fair bit with members from SAU that can tell you we're the cheapest in sydney, what sizes are you after?

Al

Ahhh, sweet.

I'll ring you guys next time (never heard of you until now)

But anyway, last i used was Blair's at Peakhurst.

They were cheaper by about $100 per tyre on my TOYOs

I think i paid $290 for 255's/17s for the Trampios or whatever they're called.

Worst quote was about $500 a fregan tyre !!!! Pffft.

But on other tyres for my girlies car, found the local could match whatever i could find and Blairs weren't the cheapest.

Your phone is your friend :)

Ive used payless tyres in Chatswood as its very easy location wise.

I got some SP9000's dunlops for 180 each

Got the R888 semis from St Georgie tyres for around 190?

size was for 16 inch rim 225 wide

Hey Nick

Sorry nothing in a 255/30/20.

in regards to the inquiry, I dont really have anything dirt cheap, i dont deal much with Nankang in these performance sizes as too many customers have had problems with them, but i will tell you what i do have:

255/35/20 nitto NT555 for $275

275/30/20 Toyo T1S for $400 (if you're only after 2 then i can get you some B/S cheaper)

225/30/20, If youre after cheap i have the General, better than Nankang for $210.(NITTO also available)

Bought a set of rear tyres for the supra at Canterbury Rd Tyre Service, just walked in and got 225/50/16's for $50 each fitted and balanced. Bargain!

Tyres were dunlops or yokohamas, cant remember - but who cares for $50

At that price i dont really care how fast it goes through tyres

I can vouche for that!

Many thanks for my wheels and tyres by the way, those toyos have made such a difference.

Matt.

are the nittos a drag tyre?

The Nitto NT-555R Extreme is the drag radial version.

The most common drag radial sizes would be 255/50/16 and 275/40/17.

I normally use Black Tyres in Yennora, but a friend has just bought Jala Tyres at 21/ 116 McCredie Rd Guildford West 2161 (02) 9721 1500

Ask for Dori.

    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
