what is your 'reasonable' price?

i have Firehawks at the moment, not too bad and under $200 for 205/45/16. but if you are willing to spend a bit more, like $230 per tyre, then better off with F1's, G3's or potenza's. i quite like the F1's, but they are a soft compund and i tore through them regularly. ive head good things about yokos but they are more expensive..

oh yeh forgot... wat size you after, as in wat rim you got and wat tyre size to match.

arent g3's = potenza g3's?... hehe
avs 100? , dont know them sorrie.. unless your talking about avs es100. haha

from prices i found recently in 195/50/55...
bridgestone potenza g3's about $125 fitted/ corner
yoko cdrive (replace of a539's i fink) about $135 fitted/ corner
yoko es100 $150/$150+ fitted/ corner.
toyo tpg $128 fitted/ corner. (if you were in syd. eg5-trader- jdmyard does them for $109 fitted/ corner)

also store prices change from store to store alittle to alot. GL... also i fink if you get any of these tyres youll be pretty happy, and you can also try a different set next time around...

195/50/15 for GIII around $125 per coner
AVS100 $130 per conner


have you got the photo for yoko cdrive , what is it look like, it replace of A539? does A539 is a track tyre?

$130 is a good price for them if it is AVS ES100.. might be right?? never know though cuz might be trying to get rid of alot of stock they have.

no i dont fink a539 was a track tyre.. just a good street tyre, es100 is more of a "street/track" tyre. they will hold up better forsure.

yeah the price is good cause its a weird size..
go back to the same shop and ask them about 205/50/15 and see the price difference... even 195/55 is alot more...

I dont know why but 195/50/15 are always alot cheaper...
