Sorry i'll fix that up

My rubber is falken ze 326 series. 2x 255/40/r17, 2x 235/45/r17

Fair amount of rubber left on them, only want $300, EASY road legal, plenty tread left.

The rubber is the same around (40,45) is just worked out on the width... works out the same hieght.

Yup,spot on Leech! Ah well,at least dayne wanted to help! I'm about 48 hours away from having to use my normal,new Pirelli's(which just aren't as good as what I'm after...). Sigh:keep on huntin'...

They dont have to be the same size, just rolling diameter... if you have wider profile a higher profile sidewall could well work... too much pain in the ass calculating though.

Jayce, if $1000 is within your budget, check out the Falken RS-V04. Theyre meant to be fairly good, and alot of jap track cars run them. If you order tomorrow before 2pm-ish from Tempe, they can be here Friday and you can probably get Ed to fit and balance them tomorrow afternoon, or on the weekend some time.

Mmmmmmm :wassup: sticky-icky-icky ooooooooooooooo-eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

EDIT: Thats assuming Tempe have them in stock... everytime I have talked to them after a set of RT215's, they have had these in stock (and not the RT215's) and theyre a proper R compound.

I've run the SRVS04s from Tempe, and while they are not the best R tyres they are better than any road tyres. And lets face it, when they are that cheap who cares?

I paid $250 ea in 245/45/17

Stoopid question,but are these tyres DOT/road legal? I might just bite the bullet anyway...

I was about to say "sure all R tyres in Aus are road legal".

But AFAIK Tempe import these direct from Japan so they may never have been tested for compliance. Best to check with them directly.

It really saves hassle when you can drive to and from the track on your race tyres, I've done heaps for trips to Wakefield and back on various R tyres

so is E and Her forester gonna have a fang round the track? :D

Nup;she's a little banged up after a "racing incident" at Hume Go Karts,plus20" rims that are under-tyred are too much of a risk...if she's up for it,she's welcome to have a steer of the 32...

      Smoothline aka Matthew stone

      By DanielStone · Posted

      Hi All,  just thought I would provide an update as I know smooth (Matt) was on this forum from 2003.    my brother Matthew passed away end of may 2024 at the age of 41 from liver failure. I am not sure how many of his original team krazy friends are still on here or active but thought it reasonable to let the forum know.    if you have any photos or pictures it would be great if you could share them.    it took me a while to work out he was active on here.    thanks so much

      R32 GTR EV? The leaf of the Godzilla's!

      By Ozdavroz · Posted

      😜 hopefully we get this instead of a new R36 GTR due to recent financial problems at Nissan. Nismo to sell a complete kit with RB26 and driveline. All starts making sense (ok maybe not) once the Nissan Leaf's (Leaves?) with stuffed EV motors/batteries hit the market cheap

      Oof. Could be worse I guess. I suppose they haven't put any effort into ally suspension parts or CF panels, seats, etc. So they could probably pull about half of that back out of the car. Not like a bunch of other EVs that already have CF everything and roll the scales at ~2t.
