Option 1 doesnt show them on their website. I found a tyre place in Syd that can do them for $150ea but shipping was $65 so $365 so its a $165 saving already in comparison to tirerack (as long as the shipping isnt $100+ ) and fitting wont be much ($10ea at MSWT)

Sure, we dont have to worry about viking raids or scurvy anymore, but instead we make a daily routine of sitting in flimsy, fibreglass (or metal) boxes full of gasoline which are propelled in opposing directions on the freeway at velocities matching that of low flying aircraft.
This is a roundabout way of saying that cars are dangerous....
I think Option1 are having a free shipping month.
They can supply most sizes, even if not on the website.
I got a quote for 4 17inch tyres from Tirerack and it was USD$280 for shipping, making it not viable except for wheels and high end tyres.

Is that dance anything like this?
As the KU31 isn't that expensive, shipping will be a larger portion of the cost to get it to you.
I know that there are some places in VIC that does Kumho cheap, but the name escapes me at the moment! haha
Otherwise, http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/NEW-225-4...item35b5536bec
$140 each + $45 shipping = $325, plus say $30 for fitting.
$355 all up. Cheap, but not that cheap.
Give Ricky @ Advanced Tyres in Richmond a call and see if they have any specials on 225/45/17s. I buy most of my tyres from there.
At the moment Advanced Tyres have nothing decent on ebay in 225/45R17s, but call them up. If you pay cash, they will supply & fit the tyres for the same ebay advertised price.
I remember they had Re001a's on special last time for $200, which IMO worth the extra $45 over the KU31s.
If you want, I can give them a call for you.
If you do go there, make a booking around lunchtime and I'll have lunch with you.

When i asked about tyres for my 17's he told me I'm better off buying KU36 because they can source it cheaper than the KU31son the note of O1G..

Ozzytyres have just launched their online store, with free shipping and I think free installation kit too, that is supposedly worth up to $200, for a limited time. Perhaps it is worth checking out:

Other than that, perhaps try Tempe Tyres as well. The last time I've checked, they were doing KU31's in 205/45R17 or 215/40R17 for only $125 each:
