    the white writing is cool. I always liked the look of the ghey white writing on old ghey toranas and such other ghey things.

    oh sorry... erm

    TTF = The Tyre Factory.. i thought they are everywhere coz there's a bunch in Victoria..and also a bunch in WA.. they did some really weird tyre sizes for me once..

    i'm still looking on the maps and yellow pages for that wholesale shop in Dandenong.. if i come across it i'll let you know... Yokohama might be out of production but there's a slight chance SIME might still make them.. (sorry mate i haven't been there in over 2 years, so it's a bit of a pickle.. it doesn't seem to be listed in yellow pages.. and the map don't do justice)

    you have 330mm rotors on the AE92 already? please post some pics.

    no, i just find it strange when you claim ownership of cars that are in a workshop

    "my" = you own. not have seen at workshop/worked on

    last time i bought tyres for my celica, the only tyre i could buy was a bridgestone G3.

    They are 205 50's i think.

    EDIT: the ghey wight writing is on my celica, they are bridgestone sf-340's but they are out of production, and even the New bridgestone g3's on the front of the celica havent got any white writing . Some people do white wall lines etc tho. there is a place in newcastle that do it. perhaps that can be an alternative.

    i should know this but my brain isnt here at the moment, but give either gary colman or grand tourer ( neil thompson ) a call they do ford GTs and the aquajets have that white writing from memory so check out and see if they can get them for you in 13s

    i dont think aquajets are road legal but see if they can get you something similar

    also check out ford muscle parts on canturbury Rd belmore nsw

    Gary colman is in pitt town in Nsw

    Neil Thompson is in VIC www.grandtourer.com.au

    just found a source, well more like i followed a link that someone on here provided. anyways theyre called "American Racing Tires" and theyve got a DOT approved 235/60/R13 at $175 each. which is a very good price in my opinion. anyways since everyones been so good ill share their contact number in case theres more of you out there in search of some wide tyres for your original rims,

    like that??

    i picked up a set wheels and tyres, 13" on 215/50.. wheels and tyres, 300 bucks.. bargained it down to 220.. and from what i gather, they don't make that size anymore..
