Is anyone heading to Melbourne with room for 8 (yes, 8!!!!) big tyres that I am thinking of buying? Happy to chuck in what you think is fair for your trouble and fuel costs.
Tyres will be in city area..... can anyone help a brother out?

are the wheels full of drugs?
for 8 big wheels u will need a fender with roof racks, or a trailer, wich will add to the drag, Or a fender130 ute,
from sydney to Melb is 865.35 km 9 hours 39 mins thats not including any stop over time, or tolls,
So a round trip would be 1730.7 km
going at 10ltrs to 100k that would be 173ltrs last time I filled up it was $1.30
a ltr,. so best case senario would be $225 in fuel, plus 2 days if you stop for a sleep in the truck,

But only if towing a complete heap of ****en **** made for towing
a barrow full of grass clippings.
With t#@*ta wheels.




Unlike a bodyboard bag which can carry grass.
