And just when I was decided on running 14's.... Looks like the 16's are back in the running, que more consideration... I assume they are made in Japan and the price is fitted and balanced.

And thank you cent, you are a champion!!!!!

Wun, ring up Jimmy at Bridgestone tyres in Maribynong (next to Highpoint) and see if he can do better than this price.

Basically if you want a set of these call Kmart Tyre and Auto Rowville 97641601 and ask for Daniel thats me. Mention your from the forum and i can order in sets of them they take about a day to get to us, at the same time you can make a booking to get them fitted. Price is fitted and balanced.

Try ringing BTC Hurstville on 95792811 as this is where I got mine from. They might even get you a better price for GB. :P


EDIT: Nevermind, just saw you're in Melbourne. :oops:


My brother bought 205/16s in December for $180 each from Bridgestone Thomastown, have they gone up since the new year?

I remember when they frist came out they were around $185 I thought the price went up because they were so popular.

And yeah I weighed them...
