if you are enquiring about the 595 RS they are harldy cheap I was quoted $289 for a 205/45x16
unfortunantly the article in the recent wheels magazine was the wrong price.

when you do ask for a quote make sure they understand you are looking for the 595 RS

STM is correct, weve both been down that path.

SS 595 is cheap, RS 595 isnt.

I got quoted $160 in 205/45/16 in the RS then got told you can't get them. The SS595 where $135 but are they any good :?:

ROFLMHO unless they've run out of the size you require. I rang the sydney warehouse & got a suppliers No. They also suggested I emphasise the "RS" cause there is a massive price difference. The SS is said to be a good Drift Tyre. thats all I've read.

I have the conspiracy therory. The mob you rang either isn't allowed to supply them or they gave you the wrong price & use that as an excuse.
