Mike.
another reason why to visit Australia!!! Cheap tires! Hope everything is great down under. We mostly have the "crocodile hunter" as the only australia representative down here on TV but I must say I know friends who went over there to study for a semester and they had to force them out. Great country and best of wishes to you.
PS-Here in south Florida, we have a lot of guys running Ford Impala cars with 22 inch chrome wheels.....maybe we need a law limiting increasing the diameter of wheels too much here as well! :-)
