I've been onto a number of places these last few weeks and the best price I can get for the Nankangs nearby me in Sydney is $115 ea. After so much deliberation over tyres and wishing I could afford the Toyos at $220ea I'm going with the Nankangs.

If they've got them in stock I know that I can have them fitted tomorrow. However, if they don't then I've been told I might have to wait 2-3 weeks for a shipment to come over.
'91 Sportswagon - 3" lifted, 14" speedys, 27" Nankangs + lots of small details improved. Wouldn't mind some extra grunt from an EJ.
