Yokohama A048's are probably the best street legal slick

Minis plus in melbourne have them for $205 a tire.

Something a bit cheaper and longer lasting is the yokohama A539 at $179 per corner

Call Gordon Leven Tyres in Emu Plains. I think Bill is still the guy to talk to. They are the NSW distributor for Yokahama motorsport tyres.

Alternative is to get a set sent from UK, apparently others are liking Huddersfields deals atm. You still have to pay for fitting them here though.

cheers
