Dave (boxhead) just bought some in, had a few issues trying to get a price locally. Worked out pretty cheap.

If no luck with Craig at Absolute, PM Boxhead - he just imported a set.

Hiya Davo.
Yes as others have said, I have just purchased a set of these tyres.

I did try local, but never got a price back, so I gave up.

My tyres are currently on the water on there way to Adelaide, I am not 100% sure they are going to fit, so if your not in a huge rush, there may be a set of unused BillBoards for sale at ShelbyFest.
They will be sold at what is probably considered very cheap, as my only costs have been purchase price and shipping form one side of Cali to the other.
Shipping into Australia they are in a container with 17 race cars, all of which have tyres, so the container gets fumigated anyway.
I will keep you informed over the next few weeks if they fit.

Pity you did not say anything a week or 2 ago, could have easily got a second set in container.

You fit 17 race cars into a container? :eek: What sort of race cars are we talking here?

Also, does your US tyre contact ship direct to Australia? I'll be looking for a set of Billboards too for my Pace 427.

Cheers,
Sime

And yes, I bought through Roger Krause Motorsport, I was initially supplied a quote with tyres freighted from him to Alice Springs.

Very good to deal with and very helpful, answering any questions I had.

All was done via email, paid via credit card.
