    Yeah Pirelli are expensive, I'd suggest shopping around and maybe even looking at a different brand. I got Kumho KU31's from Tyrepower at Wickham to replace P-Zero Rosso's on my car and they were good but had gone up $40ea since last time I was buying - so I bought Hankook instead which have worn pretty quickly.

    I'm up for new tyres soon but not too sure which way I will lean this time, or who I will go with. But I tell you what, Regal Mazda did my wheel allignment and did a great job. Have had no problems.

    Yeah definately, I spoke to Tom. You could always ask Bob Jane if they will match the price?

    Hi there, just put Toyo T1R 235/40/18's on my 2009 3MPS after the original tyres wore off. Absolutely brilliant tyres for their price. Traction control off and I cannot make the spin, the grip is outstanding. Living in Karratha we don't get much rain so I don't know how they do in the wet, dry, they are real good especially when giving those bloody Holden GTS's a thrashing. Sooooo good!!!!
