who used http://www.tirerack.com/ ? how much was shipping? what did you buy ect ect.

with the US as weak as a 2 year old, perfect time to buy stuff from America. Unlike australia their tyre prices are actually reasonable :D

so yeh, i wish to get a set of tyres from tirerack just wondering if its worth all the trouble.

I checked for myself for my next purchase (on another forum)..should share that people have recently been paying around $300 USD for 4 tires shipped to Aus with delivery times of around 4 business days after payment clears.

how do i pay in US dollars?

will i have to buy them from some random site or can comm bank transfer it over for me?

tire-rack, told me they only accept wire transfer from AUS.

Just go into your bank and ask to do a wire transfer (tire-rack will give you all the details), it cost me something like $30 to do a wire-transfer at my bank

Hey john i cant seem to find Potenza RE001's on their list are they called somethign else over in the U.S? :S. Have KU36's on atm and imo they suck

Think they have been superceded by the RE-11?

i was told i need to pay in USD though.

Pretty sure the bank can do the conversion for you.

E.g. you tell them you want to transfer $1000USD , they charge you this + extra for the difference.

Re001 are not sold in the US.

however just go the RE11 as they are better and are the new top model for potenza

i was told i need to pay in USD though.

Just tell your bank you need it to be in US dollar and they sort it out

    • Further result update. This is from our ATR43SS3 model in T3 .63 rear housing, run against None Geninue G30-770 and 900 spec turbochargers in T3. 82 turbine housing. Those turbos are ideal for RB25det motors, Since I've got a bullet proof RB30det, its been used as test bed instead.  All three turbos run to a point that no more boost could be held and no more power could be made. Same test car and exact vehich setup as been used testing all three turbos:  
    • So after having a think about what I was going to do I went with the banjo fitting option. As I'm in New Zealand I end up getting all the bit from Franklin performance for $200. Its better than the what I had before, but will have to put some tape around the ducting and once the car is going will send it and see how it goes 🏎💨🤙.
    • if you want them perfect you will need to strip and repaint (or better, powder coat). They look fine for most use though to me fixing light to medium gouges in the rim is pretty straightforward, can be done on a big lathe, or even on the car, on a hoist with tyre off. deep gouges get bog, no other option really
    • Hey just wondering how does the car drive now with the 4.11 gears now, was there any problems driving with the R33 A-lsd? Also did you upgrade the front diff when you changed to 4.11 gears? 
    • If it's all just in paint, then....yes. Sort of. Depends on what you mean by "easily". Complete strip and powder coat? Easy. It's just you hand the wheels and a stack of coins to the wheel guy and they come back fixed. Damage to the alloy? Not easy. Still doable. Same basic method. Wheels + money to the wheel guy.
