Give Brigestone Bentley a call, Kerry Wade is normally pretty kick ass with prices and he know's what he is talking about. Plus i would never trust West State Tyres to touch my car

Looking at putting Nexen N3000's ($135 from Tech9) on the car. Never had Nexen's before. Opinons?? Anyone have any experience with them? Really want Bridgestone Adrenalin's but cheapest I can find them is $265 each. Prepared to spend about $200ish a corner.

I have them on mine, bit noisier than I'm used to, but good mileage. I'd go Nankang NS2's for handling over the Nexen's

Tech 9 we try and pass our buying power on to our customers. Bar a few brands we will usually be cheaper than most tyre shops.

Bringing in tyres from the US can work out cheaper. Sometime you may even get away with out paying duties. Bonus. But also work out the effots to be made and risk involved compared to the savings. It may be worth it ? But the savings made are not with out risk.

What you guys should ask your self before calling and getting prices to help make your decison.

What are you happy spending? Price range helps narrow down brands and treads. Its not a way of working out how wealthy you are no do we care.

What are you want in a tyre and what will you be using your car for. Noise factor, Grip, rock bottom Price, a good allrounder?

End of the day shop around for products and prices. Make sure you compare as same same. Can be hard to do as you a relying on advice that can be some what bias. But research and shop around.

Happy shopping.
