Look for bargains on forums,
or if someone is selling rims with tyres.. pm them and see if they are willing to seperate the tyres.

The last time I was looking for Toyo T1R 205/45/16,
I found that Blairs Tyres in Lansvale was the cheapest $170 i think it was

The good tyres are'nt double the price. The cheaper tyres are half the price of a real tyre because they have half the grip :)

A few traders here have some tyres at very good prices. Alternatively go search on various evo and wrx forums as they have traders selling tyre for their track days.
