Second Hand Tyres

[Primordial]

Does anyone know where to buy second hand tyres in Sydney?

[HackoBoy]

i have always used Top Ten tyres, they are pretty good there...

[d00dz]

Road tyres or semis?

[Primordial]

Just road tyres... It's not for my car.. a mates.

Out of interest, where can you get 2nd hand semis from Vic? I'm looking to buy some soon.

Have you ever bought some second hand?

[evil_weevil]

Lime cordial - I guess most of the tyre shops in Hornsby may be able to help you out?

Oh - and yes - post answers for semi's

Oh Jon, Burnsie has a mate who could help you out about tyres - pm him if you like?

If all else fails Jon, I use and reccomend Owens Tyres down at Brookvale.

I had a massive run in with one of the hornsby tyre shops yesterday and I would never EVER go back to them

Gorden Leven (can't remember if that last part is spelt correctly) tyres in Penrith are where many of the club members get their second hand semi's from.

For normal road tyres, PAyless in Chatswood seems to be quite good price wise

Liz - which tyre shop in Hornsby?

pm answer if you like!

[Primordial]

Cool, thanks for the info guys! I'll give them a ring.

I'll be calling Gordon Leven for some semi's in the near future too! I've found that my current rims (17's tho unfortunately) are very light so i'll be using them as track wheels once I get my new ones.. It's a shame they are 17's though, cos most semis are 16's aye?

pm sent

I don't know about sizing sorry Jon.

[evil_weevil]

Jon - just get a cheap set of stock 33 wheels from hereat the forums?

[burnsie]

im pretty sure my mate is elling his semi's for 150 each and they are 17's i think

Do you know what brand/condition they are in?

[burnsie]

nah i dont but ill find out for you. i know he payed 490 each for them

[Liz]

and exact sizing would be good too brendan

[Beer Baron]

you can get semis in anything from 13 inch to 18 or 19inch no problem at all. 17 inch and 18inch are very common. 16 is pretty common too.

[J-Boy]

Anyone knows where to get 18" semis in brisbane?

[burnsie]
