Just buy the A050's from WW & get them fitted & alignment done at Wilks, Kerry Wade, etc whilst JF resettles somewhere else.

Kostera Tyres in Kalamunda are the distributer. They were by far the cheapest when my old man was looking for new dunlops on his EVO

I did have some but can't remember, Its just that I notice they get a choice of Hard / Medium / Soft over in the UK.
I believe they came in Mediums and Hard's here.

A050's come in soft and mediums.

Yeah, thought I got mediums when I got the 48s. I wonder how far apart 48 softs are from A050 mediums which I've got now.

A048 are sold in the UK as soft to suit COLD sprints/hillclimbs.
They would melt in most conditions over here.

I run the medium compound, probably rate them as closer to a soft Dunlop D01J or D03G

Ther medium A048s aren't any good until at least a lap of Barbs, A048s soft, going by what you say, would be great for a rallysprint etc.

Whos the Hankook dealer in Perth?

They need to update their website! no mention of Hankooks, in particular the Z221s that might be worth a shot at some stage.
