my friend just got his new tyres on his ek4

he was running RE 010's before
but hes using GIII's now

he told me the guy at thet tyre place said they dont sell RE 010's before
so he would fit the GIII's instead

does anyone know if you can still buy re 010's in syndey?

I think...
the grid III's were the replacement for the re01's, but not to be confused with the japanese market re11's which cant be found here (oz).

I believe that RE-01s are JDM only?

I think the GIII is the replacement for the RE711

GIIIs can be got from $115 - $130 depending on the profile. There isn't a huge price difference for say 50/55 series rubber.

GIIIs in "OEM" profile of 195/55/15s are quite expensive. Roughly around the $160 mark AFAIK. Win, there's a fair difference in price between the 50 and 55 profiles. :)

i thought that the GIII were the replacement of the GII?
i thought the re01 replaced the re711?
