Need tyres for drags, any help?!

[SLY33]

I'm looking for some nittos for my stock 33 rims, but ive been told by a few places that they cant get them in at the moment. Can anyone shed any light on where i could find some?!

If i cant get those, where is the best place to buy the Bridgestone semi's? such as the RE540S and RE55S?

any estimate on prices would be appreciated, i think for the nittos im looking at around 400ish a tyre, not sure how much for the semis.

If you're after the Bridgestones, Gordon Levin are the NSW distributors, and they offer a discount to NSW club members.

Not sure about the Nittos

Can anyone comment on Falken RT215s for the drag strip? Seem like a good option for me at under $200 a tyre, or can someone recommend something else under $250 per tyre for 225/50/16?

neil, can you get rt215s under 200 a tyre, where from? what is the RRP on those? If i can get some rt215 225/50 16s for under 200 a tyre thatd be half the price of nittos.. probably only half the traction tho too.

Try Tempe Tyres. Their price on the size i mentioned is only $190/tyre.
