I just bought a set of Yokohama A539s they are the business...

soft and grippy, very good in the wet... but in the end it pretty much comes

down to personal experience and preference.

They fit your price range.

as to the tyre fitment on ur rims, not too sure.. something u'll need to check

with a tyre specialist. ie. BobJane, Tyre Factory, etc

My car has 17 x 8? (not actually sure yet, still stuck on the wharfs) but rear tyres are at 255/40/17. So i reckon you might get 265's outta ur 18's? Might wanna check that tho.

Tyres i've got are Advan Neova's, haven't driven the stupid thing yet! :rolleyes: but have heard these are good tyres. Altho, ppl are having trouble actually getting them here :confused:

cheers

I personally love the Falken fk451s, they are great.  In 235/40/18 they are about 400.

just got a set of these...love them!! my car is like a different car in the wet now... I would recommend them to anyone! (they're great in the dry too, but it's just the wet that you really notice the difference when you have good tyres and you don't have to be so afraid of stepping out when you go thru a corner!)

I had Advan neova AD06's on my old soarer and they held on damn well until they were past there used by date... N-1 Distribution sells them in victoria but the prices are just plain silly unless you want to pay 3-4K for rubber :(

Damn... another person who likes FK451 Falkens :)

I think they are 'ok' - I prefer the ST115 but wear is a tad higher on the 115 vs. 451.

T.

we are running the 115s on the z now and I believe the 451s are superior, I'm very disappointed by the 115s :D

    • I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k . 
    • Hi everyone! I’m the new owner of a 1996 R33 GTS-T, I’ve purchased this car over from Queensland and brought it to Western Australia and I’ve found that there is a hole cut out in the engine bay for the FMIC that enters into the wheel well (fender liners are in the boot). For anyone that has had to get their car over the PITS here, will this be a major issue?   
    • Yeah I've spotted this one too, whenever it's lotto superdraw week and I'm browsing car sales dot com for my new ride They must be dreaming, maybe it's worth 150k for the link to Brock?
    • 100% accurate!  We are a pack of know it alls....  But, I bet people go to you when they have a problem! I've been on a bit of a clean up rampage too over the past month!  I've thrown more shit in the bin over the past 2 weeks than I have in the past 3 years combined! Anyway, it's all good fun being different! My wife sometimes does not agree!  
    • ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.
