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....
like Sava and nankang
dangerous as all shit and tbh shouldn't be sold to anyone

Hey J, Emailed them last night to see what the date stamp was and they have not got back to me. Makes me wonder??? I won't be getting them if there over 12 months old. I just can't imagine temp could do the tres so much cheaper as to make it worth it. he Veccy tyres are an odd fit so they usually charge a little more for them. I may check them out.
I ended up fitting her with Dunlop Fast Response tyres after securing a good deal. They are quiet and feel fine in both wet and dry conditions. Thanks again for the advice on this fourm. Been an expensive year having to fork out for a new coil, alternator, battery and tyres but still love my Sri.
Paddy: Like Autovaux, it seems Option 1 Garage responds better if they are contacted by phone. Any updates on this?
Glenn2199: Did you take advantage of the "buy 3 get 1 free" deal? Please let us know how you find the performance of those Dunlops as they wear.
And sorry to hear about the spending, but hopefully you don't have to worry about those parts failing for a while! (By the way, the next time the battery is not charged, it may only be due to the voltage regulator part of the alternator, which is a lot less expensive to replace than the entire alternator!)

A quick update on my end: even though my RE001's are on their last legs (the outer edges are about 1mm deep!), they still grip well enough except on really, really wet surfaces, so I might just use them for a bit longer...they certainly grip better than the worn out Toyo Proxes4's that I had before!
Has anyone tried the RE002's or the S001's yet? Please tell us what you think of them!
Also, has anyone bought and shipped tyres from overseas before? And is it worth doing?
(I am going to HK in a fortnight, so I wonder if it is worth carrying, say, 2 back with me in my luggage, and shipping the other 2...)
Thanks!

Bought from the US and even with shipping was a lot cheaper for track tyres.
Excess baggage on 2 tyres unless your flying business/first might be the deciding factor. Some airlines r doing size and weight on baggage now.
Postage from HK is usually pretty cheap, but sourcing what you want might be a pain unless you know exactly where you r going to get them from.
My 2c worth is the Yokohama AD08's. Love mine, even before the cup started.
BTW where in HK r u staying? Be prepared as its damn hot here ATM?
