OHAI,

being a cheapskate that regularily attends drift practices im always looking for second hand tyres, but there really seems to be SFA in stock atm.

does anyone know of some decent shops that have a large stockpile of decent second hand tyres?

also.. has anyone seen any decent low profile 15' tyres for sale anywhere?

not sure about there. but here on the sunshine coast there is a place called advanced tyres.

they sell 2nd hand tired.

but they are imported as new...and are classed as 2nd hand.

have all ranges.

$45 for a 16'' rim

do a search for Treads International - speak to Mick, tell him you got his details off me, he should remember my blue 34 and take care of you.

I bought 2 tyres off Treads International, when i went to get them fitted the fitter couldnt as somthing was wrong with them so i took them back and they told me to piss off. After i find these guys have been a feature on ACA several times.

i been to treads quite a few times for my tyres aswell as my mate and i have not had any problems with them i was acually going back to get some new tyres from mick again pretty soon also.

why what did axa say about them

Dont know didnt see the show i was just told about it. BTW they tyres they sell are imported so they dont have aus dot markings which makes them illegal to use on the road and you insurance void

cabbie rank hey, too bad they would be ghey 205/65 falcoon/coonadore spec

coleman are bone dry on matching low profile pairs in 15' atm

    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
