The deal is through yokohama so it is available from anyone that sells Yokohama until the end of month.


I just asked one of our local tyre places that sells Yokahama tyres and he said that it was only Bob Janes that was
doing this deal , albeit this is a privately owned company .

They lied. It is a Yokohama deal.
I was looking at the posters in my local Yokohama dealer on Tuesday.

Is your dealer on this list?

Yoko Australia need a better marketing plan. Don't they want to sell tyres?? :roll:
They have been importing 10" A008s in dribs and drabs for 20 years.
In between drops they and the dealers all say "nooooooooooo they are no longer made". Repeated BS.
Funny how we can get them from UK any day of the week.

Thanks for the offer Morris , but i don't really need any for myself , more thinking of the daughter's 04 Bini Cooper S , it needs some shoes on it . when i checked out the link you posted , it says the offer runs untill the end of July , that
should buy us some time till we work out as to whether we put normal tyres , or runflats back on it .
