IMACUL8 Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 Hey Guys and Girls I'm after some Yokohama Semi Slicks for my GTR as above (265x35x18) I bought a pair of the A050 mediums off GumTree for my daily (Mazda 3 MPS) - put them on the front - absolutely love them. Can anyone get these for a good price? Is anyone else keen - maybe we could get a few sets and get a discount? Thought if anyone else would be keen before I ran out to see what I could find price wise.

djr81 Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 (edited) Best of luck. Yokohama motorsport are happy to give fk all in the way of discount. Yes that's right, fk all. Oh and stay away from anything with 48 in the number.

Hank Scorpio Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 You could always try Taleb Tyres, the problem is only a few guys get Yokohama Motorsport accounts and yeah, usually fk all discount. http://www.sau.com.au/forums/forum/211-sau-trader-taleb-tyres/ Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/463647-best-price-for-yokohama-a050-or-neova-a048-slicks/#findComment-7699102 Share on other sites More sharing options...
IMACUL8 Posted March 17, 2016 Author Share Posted March 17, 2016 Thanks guys for the advice. djr81 - why do you say stay away from the 48 numbered tires?

djr81 Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 The A048 semi slick has a bad reputation for degrading in grip as it gets heat cycled. The A050 is regarded as much better. You will belt the front left around Wanneroo in a GTR.
