    16" Michelin Tyre urgently in Perth metro

    hi guys

    looking for the cheapest place to buy a standard michelin xpc 235 70 16" tyre! i need one tomorrow as the one i have has a few blisters on it on the outer edge and it looks like its lost some rubber under the blisters too! i just need the one as im gonna drop the spare on also and put the decent front one as a spare!

    seem to remember someone ws classed as very good and giving discounts for aulro members but cant find the thread.

    needs to be around perth preferably close to the city!

    Thanks in advance as usual!

    I have one in my shed with about 50-60% tread, but I am in Esperance. If you know anyone going Esperance to Perth it is yours.

    I have 5 of them sitting in my back yard, 2 of them at least are servicable with about 4-5 ml of tread left on them.
    Give me a call 0418844562 if you want the 2, Ill be around home tomorrow (Thurs). They'll at least get you out of trouble.
    I'm in Redcliffe.

    Blimey!

    they are popular tyres to keep in the Shed!

    Thanks Craig i knew you had one... but im not that way any time in the near future, thats why i was talking dropping a new one on and then wearing the fronts down to about the same time as the rears which still look new!

    I work in leederville so a trip to redcliffe isnt too bad depending when you will be in? in office hours or would it be after?

    Ken where abouts you located, i seem to of forgotten!

    Thanks again guys... you never cease to amaze me!

    im assuming you will accept a couple of beer tokens for them too?

    Im day off tomorrow so will only be a phone call away, just not too early.
    Im happy to accept beer tokens, but you are more than welcome to come and have the 2 with a bit of tread for nixs.

    Thanks Ken,

    I'll go for the closer ones for now, hope you dont mind! im busy at work at the moment and havent got time for a trot over that way.. christmas always seems to be bloody mad...

    Andy, i think your right... maybe i should as the TD5 seems to chew the fronts quite well... and the rears just keep on looking new! one day.... i'll wear em down and have good justification for a decent set of 4! wont get sign off from SWMBO otherwise either that or start a used tyre shop exclusively for landies!

    Thanks again guys...

    I will save mine for you Steve,when I get it taken off I will give you a yell.
    Your Disco shouldnt eat front tyres,may be worth checking bushes etc if wheel alighnment isnt the cause.
