Hi,

Just wondering... Does anyone know where I can get Bridgestone Potenza RE-01 tyres in australia. Bridgestone Australia do not sell them as they are tyre made by Bridgestone Japan. They are to fit the 17" mags on an R34 GT-T and I need them brand new.

Thanks

Damien

U need to speak to a bridgestone motorsport outlet. Apparently they are the only

ones authorised by bridgestone to sell the imported jap stuff. I bought RE55s

in WT "soft" compound semislick DOT rated road legal for my 33gtr. Got them from Magill Bridgestone motorsport outlet in Adelaide. Much cheaper than eastern states. They had truckloads of semi slick and slick tyres. Mind you you I only get

about 5000k out a set of the above. They shave seconds of lap times at the track

"but".

AFAIK, RE-01s are Jap only - I had them on my R33 when the car was complied.

If you can get them they will not pass ADR and will not be road legal (or so I'm told).

I'm running Re-55s in mid compound they're a great tyre but like sparkman said they wear very quickly.

    • Yes, unfortunately that's the one. Signal was noisy to begin with; after driving once and looking back at the logs I saw pressure constantly swinging between 0-200psi, or staying at 0 randomly for a few seconds. There's a lot of good sensors that share the same look and feel, so don't presume they're all bad. I bought mine for 20$ off Amazon and I should have read the reviews prior, as it's clear they're junk.  I purchased a lowdollerr motorsports sensor.

    • Yep, cheapest options, neglected and abused. The fastest way to dislike a car is to get assigned that model by a budget rental company  
    • The noise complaint could be from absolutely anywhere, and anyone. Get it actually noise level tested to find out if you're actually over, or if you're fine. If you're over, quieten it down. If you're under, carry the test results in the car with you.
