Bob Jane that I go to all the time ordered them in overnight. I got the 145 Falkens, which would go better on 3.5" wheels. I think they were ~$90

Minisport SA brings in Yoko A539s from UK. Way better than the Falken ones.

Yokohama Australia don't give a damn about these 12" tyres now. :evil: How come they are still sold in UK and USA...

I ordered 10 inch Yokohama AO32s from either Minisport.com or Minispares.com, can't remember. I ordered 6 at a time (same frieght cost). Delivered to the door in 4 days. Cheaper than here in Oz.

165/70-10 Yoko A008s are often hard to get hold of here due to the machinations of Yokohama Australia, but Minisport SA stocks them.

[edit] I have 2 new ones for sale, see my thread in for sale forum.

Be careful with o/s purchase of tyres... and then having them fitted in Oz..

Only a few years ago you get a tyre fitted for a couple of bucks... lately several shops have wanted something in excess of $30 to fit a tyre not purchased from them.. their tyres they fit for free.

Probably a good idea to check the total package cost before making a decision...

Cheers, Ian

With all the tieups now between tyre shops and specific brands, it's worth shopping around if you have (say) Yokohamas to be fitted. For example my local one in Seven Hills sells Kumhos and stuff, he can't get Yokos at anywhere near a good price (he says) so he has no qualms about fitting my tyres bought elsewhere. Chong and I got some of ours fitted & balanced there recently for $15 each.
