Hi I have a good source,a good friend of mine,who can get a Nankangs in 215x50x13.

His name is anthony,his mobile is 0419-461-073.

 

Regards John.

I bought some Maxxis 205/60/13.

 

Seemed like the easiest option, and got them from the tyre shop I've been going to for about 20 years.

 

Same owner the whole time and he seemed genuinely interested in the car too, plus I know he'll look after me if there are any problems.

 

The other places I contacted either didn't get back to me or were not very helpful so I stuck with the bloke I trust.

 

I didn't feel right getting them from eBay and getting him to fit, plus the cost of delivery and fitting would have worked out the same.

My Friend Anthony,kindly gave me the address of the tyre service who are selling the Brandnew,Nankangs in a 215x50x13's.

 

The name of the tyre business,

Contact Leah,And tell her Anthony has sent you,The Phone numbers,are (02)9681-3940 or (02) 9632-5293.

 

And ask Leah for a great deal.

 

Regards John.

As in the post above, Nankang now also have available 235/50/13 tyres from the same retailer AAA Tyre Factory.
This size tyre has not been available since 2003. Stock is available but will go quick in this size.

[Potta]

yeah I thought about something like that but price was a factor and I also don't intend to drive it in a way that would really get any potential from a semi-slick.

 

The Maxxis tyres will be fine.

How would the 235's go on the 6" sprint masters? Bit wide I'm thinking?

[lx308]

235's need a 7 inch rim.
205's are recommended fitment for 6", could go 215's at a pinch.

That's what I was thinking too.

Cheers.

You can get the sumitomos online. I was going to order some myself:

Also has some interesting 13 inch Kuhmos.

Sumitomos are back in stock.

I had 235 eagers on sprint masters for many years without a problem.

Cheers Graham .
