Am planning on picking up a set of new tyres while I am in Melbourne next week.

Need 2 times 245/40/18 and 2 times 265/35/18 tyres.

Anyone able to point me in the direction of the dealer(s) who do the best deals?

I am happy to look at Sumitomos, Nankangs etc.

Cheers
David

Try Tyre Power Blackburn. I know they have those sizes for around $145 a tyre.

good luck

I'll second that, always found I have got a good price from Michael at Tyre Power Blackburn, he has always been cheaper than most other outlets.

Give G&D a call on 5996 8463 they are agents for Sumitomo

2 questions:

Are these Sumitomo tyres recommended?

Is this Sumitomo, the same Sumitomo of Mitsui Sumitomo?

I now always deal with Tyrepower Sunshine

Either Mark or Olly look after me. Their prices are very hard to beat.

"The Tyre Factory Bundoora" in Plenty Rd Kingsbury have always given me a good deal.

I'm guessing you've benefitted from a big mistake made by some pimpley faced kid new to the job. :D There is not enough margin in tyres for someone to better everyone else by that much. $50 I could believe at a stretch, though not from K-Mart. I have often checked with them when buying new tyres and never found their prices to be all that good.
