Street Legal Race Tyres

[R34]

Can anyone recommend a tyre shop to sell me a set of Street legal race tyres?

My V35 is being complied in Brisbane now so I thought fitting a set of these tyres would be better than a cheap compliance set that I'll never use. At least I'll then have a set of track tyres for later.

I'm in Perth so so local knowledge would be great if someone can help.

The car is in Brisbane at the moment getting complied, but he lives in Perth

So he needs local Brisbane knowledge

Try Tyretech at Albion or there is another place accross the road from Suncorp staduim that does street and race cars. I think it is called Mark Williams Automotive?

I was not even close with the one near Suncorp Staduim

I have used them before for street tyres, always had good prices

I'd recommend Craig at Hornibrook Motorsport. Tell him Harry put you onto him. He's always cheaper than Tyretech.

What are you after? Like size, price etc.

As i have a contact here at work who'se husband runs his own small business and sells tyres at wolesale price. To give you an example, i got my Hankook K104 255x17x40 for $252 each

Give me a ring if you want 0403 477 372

Just got off the phone to Ian Boettcher Motors (3282 2722) (im after a set too) and they said youd be looking at roughly $500 a tyre.

Bridgestone RE070 he can do for $330

Top Yokohama for $540

Seeing as though your in Perth, i could arrange to get ur tyres to your compliance shop, if you want.

Also i'd give consideration to all the stuff that is happening on the docks as all the containers cannot be accessed so there may be a wait for your tyres.

what sorta size are you after?

There's a new chain of tyre shops opening up up here at the moment called "Tyres and More" that seem to do a bit of motorsport related tyres... Mind you, they were rather exxy (i think they wanted like $360/tyre for RE55's in 205/55/16)

how about semi-slick tyres as close to race tyres while still being legal

That is the sort of tyre I was hoping to get as long as it was DOT approved.

I haven't seen my car in person yet but I think they run

225/45-18s front and 245/45-18s rear but it depends on what the tyre placard the compliance shop fits says

That's confirmed as far as sizing goes.

At present I would be happy just to source a good set of road tyres at the right price .

Cheers
