Hi All,
When I got my S2 XR17 inch rims earlier in the year, 2 rims had 2 brand new Roadstone N7000's on them. These rims are currently on the front of the car and are doing a great job, rain, hail and shine. I'm after 2 more to complete the set if they are a good price. Anyone know where I could get some. the only Roadstone place I know of is Bissel's tyres in Melton, nice bloke, but he can't get me the N7000's. I got the tyres of a bloke in Hoppers, but I've lost his number. Nice bloke, a young fella (Andrew IIRC) and was/is an E series bloke. I'm wondering if these tyres were bought in the Hoppers / Werribee area? Any help would be appreciated. Cheers, GK

Did you try those guys from Wheelmags that are a sponsor here? I believe he does good deals on Nexen tyres, so he should be able to get the ones your after George. The have a section on the forums, you could ask there or just PM him.

Failing that, The Tyre factory in Geelong do Nexen N7000, their Melbourne stores might do them too?

$120 is good for the N3000, had a set for about 5000km and I'm VERY happy with them so far

I'm looking to get a pair of tyres for my Tickford rims too (2 for the rear to replace the lethal but still virtually new LingLongs...
... the wife got the back out again on the Maroondah highway by accident (hoon) and it's time to consign them to the bin ! Is $130 a piece the going rate?? Maybe we could get a group purchase price GK!! |

I'm after 2 tyres at the moment...
... found Federal 595s at Bob Janes to match what I have on the front for $155 each, which would mean I have matching tyres all round. We have no complaints about the Federals, so I may consider them. However, never to look past a bargain, the Nexens may be on the list!! I'm looking at getting them done next weekend, and as you've "tried and tested" them already, maybe we should get them at the same time!! Cheers |

If I were you though, I'd be more inclined to go the Federals for a matching set, that way you know you will have the same performance either end when you rotate tyres. Just a thought. Cheers, GK

Exactly right - Beaurepaires in Ringwood seem to be my closest source (5 mins away) and having 4 matching tyres is appealing !
I'll have a think during the week. |
