I bought Hankook ventus k104s in 235/45/17 for $175 from Joes Tyres in Moorabin.

The best way to look for tyres is decide what brand you want, then look at their website for their preffered suppliers, as they have them for cheaper than anyone else.

sorry 255x17 i meant

nah just an awesome compound tyre

provide stacks of traction and a very nice all rounder

getting them again soon. last about 15 months (28,000 k's) on good rwkw gtst

The hankooks are cheap for a reason. The reason is they are shit. Get something better.

I noticed ur car also had as nice dent in the rear end last time I saw it in hampton Park??

Wasnt that the manufacturer Mavric had problems with grip on also? <_<

Donnellans Box Hill are my choice.

Either that or City and Rural in Cheltenham.

Both have a great selection and reasonably priced.

I'm running the Falkan Azenis ST115 275/35/18 on the R atm. Good value for money rubber.

Was running DJ01s but they wore too quickly on the street.

I'm with Dave on this one.

They were considerably the cheapest around when I was shopping.

Although Clayton Beaurepaires ended up matching their price. A long story, but Clayton was more convenient for me.

Yep I've gotta agree with INASNT on the Hankooks- I just bought a GTR last Friday & it's got these on all fours & I've gotta say I'm NOT inpressed, i nfact it's embarassing how little grip they really have when pushed

It's part of owning these things, put good rubber on 'em 'cos you'll either bend 'em at best or put yourself in a box..........

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
