last week i ordered 16" ROH adrenalin in chrome, with 225/50 tyres.

That price was pretty good, $1650.

I was sposed to get them this week, but the guy rang me and said ROH lost them, or something along the way, theyd be another 2 weeks.

He said hes not happy wit them, and hell try to get me a much better price per wheel or something.

Then i get another phone call, and he has managed to get me 17" blades, shadow chrome, with 235 tyres for $1700 instead, fitted tomorrow afternoon.

The guy has done a good deal for me, so im gonna give him a plug.

Avanti tyres in rockingham, sort of know the owner through dads work, so maybe thats why he tried hard, but if youre after wheels, give them a ring and see what they can do. Im very happy with hows hes handled this.

Well while were on the topic of 'stroke of luck' i just had to push start all 1.6 odd tons of supra :D ahhh... what a stroke of luck:lol:

U never realise how heavy ure car is until u leave ure lights on and have to push it up a hill:uh-huh:

And poor quality and quick wear dont go hand in hand. My tyre are pretty cheap and they wear fast but grip real hard in the dry. But not so good in the wet.

I disagree.. I have 225/50/16's (Sava Rapidex) weren't the most expensive tyre... but for $119/piece instead of $180 i usually pay.... and lasting 60,000kms!!!

And I drive like a tool most of the time, so other tyres (read: $180 worth) havent even lasted mt 30,000kms yet.. and they're nearly bald!

:eek:

Have you had simex tyres before?

I have had them on one of my previous cars, and i thought they performed better than the G-grid's on my last car.

These tyres, that i picked up today, are nice and sticky, and the last ones didnt wear quick at all.

They might not be the top of the range, but they are at least middle if not better.

Overall I was happy with how they handled the situation.
