need some decent tyres - goldcoast

[predator]

I'm after a pair of good tyres in the next week to start getting the R32 on the road. Probably going to get Falken RT215's, but any other suggestions welcome.. Only need R16's so shouldn't be easier on the wallet. Budget is about $400

I've heard Brannigans are pretty good down here, are they good on prices as well?

Any other suggestions? or should I just pickup the yellowpages

cheers peepz..

You could always go the Federal tyre option. I like them. Cheaper tyre but still good IMO.

Adrian found a shop down the coast who deals in them.

Hmmm whatever Yokohamas which are on my car are prettty good, they were only 320 a pair...I'll check when I go out for lunch

Branigans are the option you take when you have 50 bux to your name and wire poking out of your tyres... Cheap and nasty... Good service though...

Avoid F1 at all costs...

I found BBS to be good in the past, but they forgot to mention to me that they had moved last time I booked the car in, so my business went elsewhere...

Federals are underrated IMO...

My ones are cheap and cheerful S306 Yokos

Get the RT215s, they rock!!

I got 245/45 17" for $310 from aus tyre n wheel i think it was :confused:

awesome grip and they last awhile too

[darrinspencer]

Have you tried using the club sponsor Bob janes

Be interesting what prices you get compared to other tyre shops

Put them to the test!!

Let us all know the results.

Do not bother with the Federals unless you want cheap

I have tried both 235/40/18 and 245/40/18

Do not have very good grip

I Have some very worn out doggy 255/45/17 Nankang on the rear now, and they have ALOT better grip then the Federal ever had

Both are cheap tyres

I am going to try the Falken st112 next or something pretty soft

I am sick lighting up the back every time I go to the local shop!

[predator]

thanks so much guys..

jax or action tyres sound great and they're close as anything, would prefer somebody who knows turbo cars.. and doesn't try and just sell me whatever they'd stick on the nearest commodore. I will probably go down to them today.

I'll probably check out bob jane too.. although I'm not a member :Oops:

Had dodgy tyres on the R33 and I hated it near the end, I want some pretty good ones this time - especially seeing as this car is not going to be daily driven..
