low profile 14inch tyres.

Hey team. I'm after some low profile tyres for some 14x8 rays mesh wheels that i got! anyone know where i can get some cheapish 185 45 14's or something a similar size?

cheers

[dirtyleppa]

do you want them for fitment purposes or good tyres to drive on? ive got some 175 50's i think you can have, but they are fucked

YOu can get 195-45-14s in a few different brands. Think the lowest profile a 185 goes is a 55. The 195-45 would have a nice little bit of stretch on it on an 8 though.
I had Kuhmos, they were about $130ish each from memory. But im positive other brands do them too

I need them for general driving. but cheers anyway dirtyleppa!

oh yeah? 195 45 would be a nice size! i'll try and track some down cheap from somewhere! lots of places say there not doing them anymore.

I got mine through tonys tyre service, cant remember who the kuhmo dealer is in blenheim. but i know firestone can get them but sure if they would be the cheapest

Im after the same size and know some tyre people to ask. Maybe try get a group buy if ya keen. I also hate ugly tyres so very picky.

[z18et1200coupe]

yeah mate if you find someone who would give a deal for 2 sets that would be mint. have you seen the falken ones on hyper.co.nz ? they look pretty sweet. i'll see if they'll hook up a deal if we wanted 2 sets off them?

[crustywhip]

I will look into some options on tuesday and see whats there. Im keen on a set as my new 14s just turned up.
