Has anyone bought tyres off ebay before? :P
Brand New 235-35-19 HANKOOK K104 SPORT Tyres $189.50 each. Is that any good?
Costs $120 to have 4 shipped here from over east. Then still have to get them fitted...
Are Tempe worth going through by the time you pay for shipping and fitting??

Anyone have any idea how much the import duties would be when you go over $1000? Looking at some Goodyear Eagle F1's on tirerack.... By the time you add shipping it'll go over 1k

Depending on shipping costs of course, place an order for 2 tyres. Then place another order for 2 more a bit later for your girlfriend/mum/whatever.

if its $999 AUD its free
if its $1000 AUD its +10% import duty then +10% GST on top

in my experience Tirerack won't mark the price down either
