235/40/17 semis

My front tyres are square.
 
Anyone got a half decent pair of these I can buy? 225 or 245s might work too, must be 40 profile though or they'll scrub

    No. No tyres for you.
     
    You and your #*%! n/a embarrassing the old blokes in their turbos!!!
     
    (* sarcasm clause for those unable to see it as such)
     
    No, nice job, and when you were babying highlanders car around the track I got a chance to follow you and see where the proper lines of the track were and realise how much of a mash up I had been in finding them so far.

    you burned through those FZ's already Iain?
     
    Can get you another pair if you wish, otherwise I'm still able to get most semis out of the USA at decent rates.

    Yeah I have flat spotted the fronts in multiple places through to the canvas :S
    Rears are on the wear indicator but have a bit more life in them.
     
    Wasn't really all that impressed with these tyres and the "for competiton use" on the side makes me too nervous to drive them on the road, my car is would be too easy to defect as it is.
     
    Can you do toyo r888 or nitto nt01s?
     
    And Dudeman i'll be tracking my turbo car soon enough so you'll have an excuse :)
     
    Really good to see you out there your car looks so much nicer that when I first saw it a couple of years ago, great to see it being put to good use.

    I heard Kumho V70A are good value. My mate has some on his mx5 turbo and said they're heaps better than the r888 he had before. Not much more expensive either.

    I have a set of old semis for sale. They are Yokohama A048 though have gone off. Plenty of tread so are street legal. Best for street use. Would be too hard for track. Let me know if interested

    You can have the tyres that are on the black rims for $50 each.
