Hi ausminians if your looking for 10" tyres in melbourne this may help you. Here's the email i sent to yokohama I contacted them asking about 10" A008's and A032's tyres and this was there reply. Hi William, Yokohama make both patterns in a 165/70/10, however the A032R can only be purchased through our motorsport dealer. Your local motorsport dealer is – Traction Tyres and More 65 Kelletts Road Rowville 3178 PH: 9764 2811 Traction Tyres can supply both of these tyres for you. Cheers Bill |

Cheaper to import ao32s from England rather than buy them here. |

I didnt ask for price just availability , you could always ring traction motors up " just remeber to put 03 before the phone number " . As for imported ones another poster here asked for a quote on delivery to aus , i dont know if he posted it though. Cheers Bill |

I buy my AO32s from Minisport in the UK. I get six at a time as the shipping is the same as for four. This equates to $766 for six or about $128 each delivered to your door within a few days. My friend's wife works for Yokohama and the cheapest she could get them was $230. I don't think she likes me though. |

What carrier do you use to get them from England or who is the carrier that delivers them ? |

Midland Wheels in the UK might also worth a try. They've currently got Yokahama A032R tyres for 59 GB pound each. (about $87 Aus) I've recently purchased 4, 12"x 5" alloys with Yokahama A048R tyres fitted, balanced and with stainless steel wheel nuts for $1028 delivered to my door by TNT freight in 10 days. www.midlandwheels.com |

Midland wheels was cheapest postage found when I investigated 8 x a032rs. But you have to ask for postcode specific postage, website wont tell you. |

On another note Traction do a fair deal on 13" formula ford tyres for those running 13's. The FF racers seem to upgrade unnecessarily and old tyres are sold. If not they put a drill bit through them and dumpster them. |

It's not tyres only but Huddersfield was GBP 307.50 + GBP 185 freight for 4 Alloy Minilite lookalikes and A008s fitted balanced nuts and caps - That's about $764 all up |

Wow those are impressive figures fm the UK 
Its a wonder that Oz distributors haven't wizened up and lowered the retail here. Whether is $87 or $128 there is a 79% mark up at worst for $230. 
I'm pleased I asked guys. I'm not in the market just yet, but i wont forget to search this thread when the time is right. Thanks awesomely (if that is a word...)

OK. That's Yokohamas. What about: 1 American Racer (non slick - historics) 2 Hoosier (non slick - historics) 3 Dunlop Formula R 4 Other recommended track or track / road 10" rubber:?: We may as well try and get all of this assembled into one place

3 Dunlop Formula R - not popular in UK, I think they were cheaper here when I was checking a while ago |
