255/35/19 re050 - I can do for absolute minimum of $682ea fitted. My RRP for that is $864ea
there is an RE002 in the 255/35/19 which is as good, if not better. and cheaper. RRP $786. I can do absolute minimum of $621.00ea on these
That's cheap as for Australia! But I'll give it a miss thanks.

Fuck, the 255 is wrong. I accidentally hit 235. my apologies. the 255 is $743 minimum and $943.70 RRP. No re002 :/
My Bad
but yes, VERY cheap for Australia, but still expensive compared to overseas.
I will be getting myself RE002's for my 86

Nice. I was going to get these for a car I had a while ago. I don't think I need semi slicks on this car though

Very nice price! They retail for about $170 in the states, add about $350 for shipping, and that's very close!

The RS-Rs are NOT actually 'semi-slicks'. They're comparable to other UHP street tyres such as the Proxes R1R, AD08 etc. Also, the fact that they work well in the wet tells you this too. Don't know why anyone would buy a car like this and put big sticky tyres on it though...
