Anothe point, related to other posts, is that Tirerack shipping is to whatever nominated address you want. Not depot.

Delivered to the address you give them, they are left at my door when I order them.

hey guys for your info been doing some research and found priceusa to be a good company to use i will be giving them a go when i need new tread, plus they are an australian company

Pretty dear though, I have previously used them to import R1Rs

Tiretrack ship free to the US, so free postage to that mob, Then its about a few hundred to get them over here - I think tiretrack quoted me $250 for postage.

would stll be worth while is there was a saving of $500+ if not local looks the way to go now

Nah, the point is that PriceUSA don't get anywhere near as cheap shipping as Tirerack do. Tirerack have got really good freight deals with their various shippers. Almost no-one else gets as good a deal as they do.

Yes very true

But if you are buying tyres that "Australian companies" won't bother bringing in then you are winning and semi slick prices are a massive saving still

Seems Tirerack have changed their export policy yet again, but this time for the better :) All brands are able to be exported to Australia they are just limiting the quantity to 4 tyres per order.

I emailed them just before Christmas and that was the reply I was given.

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
