Used Slicks - where can I get some?

Monster · Post by **Monster** » Wed Feb 22, 2012 7:25 pm

As per title really.

Have ordered a new set of rims for the gtr and the plan is to run it on slicks and keep the 888s as "wets" - which I may regret on the first properly wet day!!

I've tried touringcarspares.com but they don't have anything in the size range I need. I'm also waiting for another guy to come back to me who's name I can't remember - it's on work email.

Any ideas who else I could try?

Cheers

What about someone like Darren Bly or Ron?

I did try Ron a while back when I was speaking to him about something else but he didn't call me back. No great surprise, suppose I should chase him

Great idea Mike. I'll add him to my contacts

I have a few contacts for tyres. What size do you need?

Sorry Eddie, not ignoring you, been out of the country for a few weeks.

Well it's on 265/30/18 888s at the moment so anything similar. I've been told it will run 27/650 ok but I reckon 26 or 27 / 640 or 645 would be better as i don't want to lift the ride height too much

If you get any joy please let me know
