What prices are getting on the above and I like the Bridgestone, for reliability and well proven tyre. You will pay for it though.And where your from can help as ppl on here know ppl and will throw some at you.I.B. Edited 13/05/08 01:29 AM by Iconic Bionic

Normally a touch on the harder side to the Dunlops, but really depends what you are looking for... Road noise levels, grip, wear, etc...I see your in Sydney, so whatever you decide to choose, let me know (PM ME) and I should be able to help you out with some guys on cheap tyres... Have a few contacts you can call for good pricing here in Sydney...
