    i've got some old tyres that would be good for skids if someone in melb wants them.

    i will do a full thread for them, but they're all 14"

    some pairs, some singles, a range of sizes.

    $5 bucks each.

    iv got the lady at my tyre shop to put all 13's 14's and 15's with tread in a different pile to the others and i always go grab em and she fits them for around $10.

    shes more than happy for me to grab them but because it costs her to get rid of them plus she makes money out of fitting them for me.

    where i used to work there was always the thought of there being issues with legalities, people taking old tyres that could cause an accident and suing, but if there was a genuine dude who looked like he just wanted to do skids we let them go, i stole pretty much every good 14 that came through for about 2 years, i cant remember paying for a tyre i have popped, ever. That will have to change in good time sadly,

    I used to go to a place in melb ages ago to get skid tyres, but i went in there one time and there was a bunch of commonwhore drivers throwing tyres everywhere. just being dicks. the owner had survailence and locked the place up and the dudes had to got to court for it in the end.
    But im gonna speak to him in the next few days about taking some 13 and 14's of his hands, and as was said, sling him a 6pack.

    yeh i will bring that up aswell. the guys down there do alot of motorsport stuff so sure they'll be up for it! cheers n00bvak! lol.
    most of my mates n that will do alot to help out local businesses out.
