A pre the Australian release set was flown into the country for the recent Motor evaluaton. It won. There is a definite buzz around the world about these new tyres and the technology they represent. Short Popular Mechanics ReviewGoodyear site linking to media reviewsLet me know if you find them.Regards,aa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ardi Member 117 Member For: 16y 4m 25d Posted 01/07/08 02:28 AM Share Posted 01/07/08 02:28 AM 265/35/R18's were $368ea but I dont think that included freight. Most cases its about $25 per tyre for freight. The 235/40/R18's were like $5 cheaper.Im now on these tyres too! Will the 265/35/R18's fit on a stock ba 18 inch rim? If not does anyone know how wide I can go? My car is sitting fairly low with the guards rolled. If I run them on the rear as an all day tyre will they be shocking in the wet??Anyone know where to look for them in SYD?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DesFlurane Member 351 Member For: 18y 5m 17d Gender: Male Posted 01/07/08 03:38 AM Share Posted 01/07/08 03:38 AM Should be a 9" rim for 265 as specified on the Federal website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
