yes cool im running bf goodrich profilers at the moment they have been awsome till the cold weather come in now my car goes like a skun cat I cant get any traction I did a 400 mtr burnout the other day just with the power from about 40klm an hour up with a rolling start pritty awsome in the cold weather.

I have the V103s and would not get them again, not as much grip as the original Dunlops, and don't last anywhere as long. They are quieter though.

Paid $420 ea last year for 245/40/18's

Out of curiosity, what PSI are you running in your tyres?

HAVE BEEN TRYING TO CHASE THESE TYRES MYSELF BEST PRICE SO FAR WAS $515 AND THE HIGHEST WAS $680.

I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO KNOW IF ANYONE CAN GET THESE TYRES CHEAPER.

THE SIZE I WAS AFTER IN THE V103 ARE 255/35/19

THE PRICE I GOT WAS IN PARRAMATTA IN SYDNEY

I have the V103's and they are twice as good as the Dunlop SP9000's they replaced. The FPV's now come with MAXX, and they are heaps better and equal to the V103's

I paid $410 per corner, but that was for 18's.

I suggest you call a few places and see what they will do.

Traction Tyres in Rowville Victoria quoted around $390 per tyre for 18's.

they are a Yokohama dealer. I guess they can offer better prices due to the quantities they sell.

$580 for 275/30 19s V103. The Pilot Sport 2 were $960. I think the Maxx are very good, but not sure if they are as good as the V103's. I've heard the new Pzero Hero is superb as are the new Conti Sport Contact 3. But probably as dear as the Michelins?
