$84 actually, and in stock! Take a trip over pick up a dozen sets and bring em back as excess baggage. I can see it now... STM's Dodgy Tyre Shoppe, where every tyre sold is pre-tested by the Manager to destruction :mrgreen:

LOL US$110 per tyre to ship to australia that would work out at around AUS$320 before import duty.....This kind of starts making the Federal 595 RS very attractive.
this is from 1010Tyres.com
oh well......

the waiting game continues

They're better than stock :mrgreen:


Turn in is better and more controlled, back end doesn't wanna jump around as much, just feels A LOT MORE sure footed and predictable. I took her through Mt Glorious/Nebo and only got slowed up by 2 cars the whole way......good chance to test 'em :oops:

Through some familiar turns I'm up to 80km/hr vs. 65-70km/hr.
