Can anyone tell me where is best to get 10" tyres in Melbourne.

I am after Dunlop Formula R's or Yoko A008's.

Appreciate any leads.

OK, earlier today the alloy Cooper wheels arrived and now am just back from Stuckeys.
Stuckeys by the way were great. Happy to recommend them.

Claude now looks a treat and I have added a pic of his AquaSlips.
