the federal's are exactly that, cheap tyres, they wont last any where near as long or even grip as good as a good quality tyre such as these, you get what you pay for, and that's the truth when it comes to tyres. a $50 tyre is no where near as good as a $150 tyre thats why there is the price difference, any person with half a brain could figure that out.

^^ that mad no sense at all..

the federal 595SS are used by australias BEST drifters in Drift Australia.

They do countless laps of frying tires with 400+ hp applications with no dramas.

The also use other brand like toyo kumho ect but not one driver use the tires u are trying to sell.

Drift is only ONE example, the nexen n3000 is used on hand made MG cars, lots of mx5s owners use them on motokahana days ect.

The tyre your trying to flog off for top dollar is not worth anywhere near your asking price.

drifting is not gripping. these are not tyres to go frying around a race course side wards, these are tyres that grip to a surface. You know why F1 cars use bridgestones and not federals or nexens, because they dont grip. two different tyres for two different intended applications.

Now if you wanna be a smart ass, go piss off and be a smart ass elsewhere.

ahhahaha f1 cars use bridgestone because bridgestone has the market power to control whatever they like.

the bridgestones on the f1 cars are MUCH different then the pissy tyres ur trying 2 sell.

drifting as all about grip. the grippier tyres you have, you can go faster n have more control throughout the corner.

as i said, thats only one example.

plus who the hell would buy a tyre with 55 profile lol! the car will feel like its floating

Mastadd,

Dude I feel for you. The ER300's your trying to sell are a top shelf street tyre thats why they're expensive and with tyres you really do get what you pay for. The $135 price tag is cheap, almost as cheap as I get them at cost from the factory.

If you had 225's for sale rather than 205's they would have sold ages ago and your thread wouldn't have been hijacked.

I'm amazed that anyone compares Federal with Bridgestone as they are in general 2 completely different tyres. Federals are usually a hard compound tyre which last longer but with less grip + noisier. Bridgestone are generally softer, therefore grippier and quieter but don't last as long.

Good luck with the sale, some-one must need a set.

Obviously you have no idea about maintaining a relatively stock rolling diameter for certain vehicles...

Also I don't understand why you would compare these two tire manufactures? Who cares! Also price is irrelevant when comparing different types of tires and manufactures.

Bottom line, price he's asking for these BRIDGESTONE TURANZA ER300's (not your so called Federal 595SS used by australias BEST drifters in Drift Australia :( ) are cheap. Have you rang around to get quotes?

Anyway, back to the original post. I'm keen to grab a pair. Although they are cheap as, any further negotiation possible?

Cheers,

Andy

Thanks guys! Finally people who get it!!!

As for the sale price, i really really dont wanna drop them any more then what they are, but if you can help find me someone who wants the other pair then maybe we can work something out, ill pm you with an offer.

Cheers

keyboard warriors who think they know stuff but talk out of their arse amuse me. good luck with the sale, they sound like quality tyres and I'd be keen except I'm in Sydney and shipping is too much of a pain.

    • 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!
