      Can someone MSN Howie to get him on here?

      Does anyone know if he is running stock rims? Just to gauge pricing as I'm due for tyres soon too

            Call up your local Bridgestone they should be able to give you a price. My local place charged me 161$ fitted and balanced for 195/55/15R.

                  Vehicle: 2005 Type S
                  Tyres: Dunlop Sport MAXX
                  Size: 225/45/R17
                  Cost: approx $300 fitted (a corner)
                  Mileage of tyres: 4000klms
                  Previous tyres: OEM Bridgestone Potenza RE050 (215/45/R17)
                  Comments: Really good grip, wet & dry performs well with spirited driving in dry. Although its rated better than the stock RE050's, from memory the RE050's tended to handle a tiny bit better. I managed to get 40,000 kms from the RE050. However, the Dunlops are rated to have a better life. Noise wise, it sounds pretty noisy, but a little music gets rid of that. Also, everything is stock, no after-market suspension. Went with the 225 instead of 215 as they were the same price at the time. Thought it would give me an extra advantage, being wider. Overall I would recommend it for the daily enthusiast.

                      No Mate, but ive got the RT215's and they are great. I dont regret them for a second, but they are quite noisy

                          Comments: Very stiff sidewall, excellent dry grip. Wet performance not so good. Quite noisy, but very grippy tyre.

                            Comments: Good grip, fantastic in the wet, more progressive than the S03's, not sure if the RE001's grip quite as well, but could just be my imagination.

                              I guess its just the car....

                                I just tried out fresh Toyo R888's GG's at wakefield. IMO they are crap! They don't get heat into them, and way to squirmish. I'm going to have to try Advans or Direzza's
