bubba Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 Roll Right in Balcatta, they sell a good range of 2nd hand tyres. They will also put tyres you bring onto rims for a nominal fee.

bubba Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 Roll Right has almost any size you want. I used to get lots of 17" tyres in 225/45 to 245/40 from them for like $75-$85ea. Got a pair of 2nd hand Continentals from there once (like $800 tyres new) in 245/40 and even when they got bald they had more traction than the LingLongs I had at one point. Running new Federal 595SS's at the moment and they seem like a pretty nice street tyre, plenty of traction even in the wet..
