Rollocks, have a completely flat o/s rear tyre, so looks like a few items (as well as the paintwork :mad: ) are going to have to be severely bumped up the list of things to do.

What I'd like to know isssss..

What price could you do me for 4x Pirelli p6000's.

And what combined price could you do for the 4 tyres (to fit a standard S13, I have no idea Re: dimensions, am new to this lark!), PLUS, the uprated KYB F & R shocks..


Many thanks :)

Bren FYI...

Std size is 195/60/15, but you want to go to 205's ideally.

Maybe 215 but can't be sure they'll fit.

I'm running 205/55/15's as are quite few others, these are only fractionally 1.* % down on the std rolling circumference, or you could go for 205/60/15 but these seem to be pretty rare.

Can you give me some prices too? :) Not P6000's though.

Bren,

I am gonna need some 205/50/16's or 215/45/16's(Rare as hell?) or some 225/45's

Can u get me some prices too. Nothing mega money like SO3's though.

I quite fancy the Falken FK451's. A mate has em on a proper Quattro and he swears by them.

M -reg S13, 15" 's? Don't look that small... (Feeling I'm making a prat of myself through lack of knowledge...)

If 205's will fit, then 205's it'll be I guess.

Would go for 'classier' tyres, but as previously discussed, the P6000's seem to be the recc. buy for performance/budget ratio.

This ruddy thing is costing me a fortune, but I kinda like it.. :eek:

That means getting out of my chair and going outside, though...

'Tis Standard 7 spoke Nissan alloys, so must be. Didn't realise they were that small, I feel cheated ;)

They are the latest pattern, the 451s :)

Btw, Ive now got boxes and boxes of Castrol RS 10-60 in stock. Some people rate it over Mobil 1. Its a little more exspensive than the Mobil One though, £25 a tub.

I have the ZE502's.

Pretty crap really Jezz.

Yup you have to start asking quessies if they are only £54.

I'm holding out for an answer about 225's on the std 15's.

I had 225's on my BMW 15's but I cant remember what width they were, 7" I think.

Cheers Bren, am getting such huge variance in quotes it's ridiculous. All for a few bits of rubber, s'silly.
