David,
   I have a price for 4 new Dunlop Le Mans LM703's   205x60x13 to your door for $400 or $360 pick up ( $10 per tyre delivered is the cheapest i know of... fuel cost would be double that...but if you're going down to Syd already than bonus savings )

i think that's very cheap, see what you think and let me know what you want to do

see the blacktown ones $45 buck each, 60-80% tread.

Sumitomo look to be the only main supplier of these tyres now.

also maxxis.

Its good to keep revisiting this because we all need tyres from time to time, I will need some soon and is getting harder to find them.

[Dave Lakin (Davo Lako)]

All enquiries seem to indicate that Hankook no longer produce 205x60x13's ...

Dunlop LeMans 703's are about, but hard to get ... try Tempe Tyres ... (Thanks FE 4 ME) ...

Nankang's are available in 205x60x13 on Ebay or through select dealers ... after that ??

Looks like those burn-outs are gunna be costly !!!

Cheers, Dave.

Hey Dave......... as i mentioned in my PM to you...Goodyear Ducaro's are a great weather tyre and dont leave much rubber when you smoke the tyres... i have sourced a guy that can do 215 x 65 x 13 or 165 , 175 , 185   they're a great hard wearing tyre and perfect for wet weather...as you know i had them on my RX3 coupe and they smoked but never left a huge amount of rubber


see how you go.... mind you LeMans are a good tyre but easy on the burn outs you pay for every rev  ;) ;D

anyway it's good to have options....  ???

hope i could help
