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 "Have A Great Holden ( FE ) Day !!!"

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.

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  anyway it's good to have options....  hope i could help FE 4 ME " Have A Great Holden ( FE ) Day !!!" |
