Surprising!!! I bought mine just over a month ago!!

Agreed with Al. Ardross Tyres have always been good for keen pricing. Booragoon Tyres for your Bridgie R comps.

The guys at Midvale Discount Tyres can do great prices on Hankook. I am running the RS-2's which are a pretty aggressive street tyre (grippy) and they were $250 a throw for 18's.

I Totally agree too. Sent a detailed PM to Scotty about sizes and specs for a quote and he never got back to me. Was spending serious dollars too.

Ended up getting mine in from Tempe tyres far cheaper than anyone in Perth could manage.

I got K107s from wheels world at $285 each.

I could have got them at $249 a tyre at Tyrepower Greenwood 26 Canham Way 6024 (08) 9247 1166, they had none in stock though and I wanted a good wheel alignment from John anyway.

Just called Patrick at Midvale Discout Tyres. Can still do the RS-2 no worrries. $250 a throw including GST for 235/40/18's They are only a new tyre so it would surprise me that they have been discontinued.

Well worth the 40 minute drive from the city to save $180!!!!

I have street driven adn tracked them now and am very impressed for the $$.

Midvale Discount Tyres 50 Farrall Rd Midvale 6056 (08) 9274 7270
