that cheap tyre joint

[karag]

after a bit of searching I still can't find the post about that cheap tyre place in melbourne...

anyone remember the name of it? think it was in the northern suburbs somewhere..

need to replace the snow tyres (so I can go return the rubber to nature on some *private* street somewhere :wassup: )

I believe this is the information you're after:

North End tyres bro

14a carrick drve,

tullamarine.

Cheap as chips, i scored 285/R18/30 Pirelli Pzeros for $150 fitted.

Thanks

[karag]

what did you end up searching to find it? me and forum searchs just don't seem to get along

[inark]

lmao make sure u keep those snow tyres!!! unless u destroy them completely when sending them back to nature

man i had a ball when my car first came to aus with them on it... Bridgestone BLIZZAKs!! hahaha man the amount of smoke that poured from them.

[karag]

Yeah I gave them a go at a bit of smoke up but the car was playing silly buggers..

stalled up and let them spin but it just didn't want to spin hard.

needless to say the smoke that came out from the little spinage was pretty good.. can't wait to bake them :wassup:

[inark]

[JAPCAB]

looks like i'll be heading back down there soon......i wasted those pzero 285's i had on the rears! Great tyres but the tyres wore away pretty quick, i imagine they were just made of a softer compound.....hrmm perhaps i just ripped em up too hard....its really hard to say looking back! Great grip off em though!

[inark]

hmmmm... i might end up keeping my 18s so i might see how much it will be for 4 second hand tyres....

Be careful though I got a couple of duds which caused my car to vibrate at 100km/hr.

Got new tyres now and all sweet. They didnt want to give me a refund either.

[foznice]

that might be because when they changed the tire they didn't balance the wheel, most mechanics will balance for under $10

Yeah, these guys dont do a good job of balancing, I'd still take it elsewhere for balancing after they do it.

None the less, they have many great bargains.

I once got some duds off them, and they refunded me (at $20 less per tyre as it was a few weeks since i got them), as long as I got some others off him..

Yeah they are pretty good but for me I live about 1hr away so I didnt really want to go back and forth.

No Mate, I returned them as soon as I found they were causing vibrations. I mean I could hardly hold the steering straight at 100km/hr on the freeway.

They said they would sell them on .. Scary.. I advised them not to but Im not sure what they did.

[sno33]

Not to keen on drivin all the way there just to find nothin i like...
