Has anybody dealt with them before or know of anyone who has? They look pretty well organised. I am thinking about buying some 17in nankangs from them $120ea + $10 freight. My main concern is their delivery, as I need them within the next week or so...

Any recommendations would be tops.

Cheers

Cal.

Dealt with them also about 8 months ago. They were good to deal with had the wheels sent to Sunshine Coast and had them in 4 days. Good prices too for wheel and tyre packages! Just make sure you confirm everything before they ship.

Good luck with the new tyres

they are good...i bought a set of rims off them when i used to live in sydney...stay clear of ozzytyres- they are the worst, and big 0 tyres are just as bad

Totally agree Ozzy tyres are knobheads. I went there to get new springs in because the previous owner had chopped them and I got defected for it. I told them that I had to clear a defect, drove from Newcastle to Sydney, buggered around all day getting them fitted, got back home, went to a workshop to get it cleared and I was still 2cm under height. Ended up buying 12 rubber blocks, jacking up the car and jamming three in each spring coil, drove VERY carefully back to the workshop, got it cleared and sold the car 3 weeks later. Everything was falling apart from having such a harsh ride for so long.

Long story short dont go to Ozzy ;)

You, might be the Knobhead,selling your car to some poor unsuspecting person knowing quite well it wasn't roadworthy.

Just my opinion though.

yeah a mate of mine has bought 2 sets of tyres off them, 1 set of 20" rims and a set of 18" rims all came within a few days and no problems with them. just make sure if you need offset or anything you state the correct offset to them and spacer size also. these are the most important things.

Um no actually if you read it properly i got the springs fixed, and the problems i had i only found out about every time i got a service. And she got an NRMA inspection before she bought a car. And i took the rubbers out. And dont say its unroadworthy because of the height, how many cars sell while being too low?

I have a set of 255 nankangs on the rear of my 33....

They are falling apart.... Way toooooooo soft.....

There is rubber all up the back of my car all the time.... No burnouts either.... They are really tight but very fast wearing tyres....

At the price i cant think of a better tyre tho.... For price/km's traveled i think there pretty good.... Just hate the rubber all over the car...

i need sum 255 tyres soon aswell for the rear. i also have nankang ns II but i have them on the front. they are a soft tyre but they seem to grip ok but im going to get a tyre that is a bit harder compound for the rears bcoz i just dont think they nankangs will hold up to the rear end torcher. there just too soft.

Try falken azenis. I got 265/35/18's and they seem to be holding up good.

      This piece is obscenely discontinued. I honestly hate the frameless window design because the rubber gets stressed and the guides as well every time you open and close the door.

      I wouldn't be concerned at all, other than to suggest having them flow tested when you receive them to confirm they are reasonably similar, and then put the highest to lowest flowing ones in cylinder 6,1,5,2,4,3

      I’m only posting this cause I thought I had seen a bad review on these somewhere before. Any feedback? Would you guys recommend that if I do buy these I send em to RC to have em checked before installing. Or any other suggestions?   https://www.ebay.com/itm/114009965865?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=JDl-15yLQ8C&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=QTzlFXB1S-S&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

      They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...
