Tyres are the only thing that connects the car to the ground.
I am a tight arse, but I will never scrimp on tyres. |

Doh , I was thinking Gordon Levy in the States...

Longstone Classic Tyres UK
225/60R15 260 PoundUk 245/60R15 275 Pound Uk .......Sorry couldn't find pound sterling symbol By the time you convert to Aud and add shipping. Would be cheaper to purchase locally! Ian |
Does not help that the AUD / GBP conversion is around the worst for the past 5 years. If the current trend continues, the next run of imports will (may) be more expensive depending on distributors margins.
|
What about our American Brothers? What are they paying for the same tyres (tires)??
|
Found some Usa pricing From Roger Kraus Racing in Ca for same size tyres....
225/60R15 $377us 245/60R15 $399 us Don't know what shipping would cost though Ian |
$399 USD will calculate to roughly $505+ AUD possible more depending on your credit card exchange rate used, let alone paypal. Add shipping and you are over the aus seller.
Current exchange rates are not overly enticing compared to recent times. In the past I have paid $280 to have 4 tyres shipped with tire rack and another time was $315 for 6 tyres. |
Here's a quote from Stuckey Tyres
Avon CR6ZZ 295/50/15 $625 each Avon CR6ZZ 245/60/15 $535 each |
They are closer to sizes I'm looking for.....
I was hoping to find a used set for set up purposes but my guess is people will hold on to these since they are so expensive |
Performance Plus California
Mickey Thompson ST's 235/60R15 $122 245/60R15 $131 295/50R15 $170 A lot cheaper than local but then comes down to shipping and the prices they charge. Plus with the exchange rate of late.......Will be cheaper to purchase locally. So much cheaper to build and maintain a Ac Cobra in the states than here! Ian |
I've put "Billboard" style lettering on mine and I think they look almost as good as the Goodyears:

The Avons do look nice, but with the exchange rate a set will cost me about $1800 without including shipping.....
