Default New rears will be needed soon...

Sorry in advance as this has probably been queried a million and 9 times on here but the search really is piss poor

Anyway, I foresee a new set of rears being needed within the next few months, where to source them? What size? (something about the old S02's being discontinued?) for original OEM 16's please?

Thanks

Bracknell tyres and look in the FAQ for the right sizes.

Stories about the ES02JZ's demise pop up all the time, but they're still available.

Get Eagle F1's

Try ATS they will price match any quote you get and I have had great service from them in Llandudno.

Thanks for the replies everyone

Beardey, Rumours of the ES02JZ's demise have been greatly exagggerated then?

Adrian, seeing as though its only the rears id prefer to just get 2 tyres as opposed to four... with uni started again I have fees etc to pay otherwise id just go the whole hog for F1's

Nottm, What did you type? All I see is debris of 1's and 0's flying everywhere?

Jevon, wow thank you mate, I will have a lookie/ give them a go tomorrow from work and hopefully let you know if I need any help, majorly grateful

no wonder students are in so much debt these days!

go for a set of kellys/marshals so you can pay for those fees!
