Guys I found that most places that I would ring up saying they have it in 'stock' actually wouldnt. A quick google search gave me the same results, 'in stock' but not actually in stock for last few years.

I had a mechanic mate of mine from brisbane try chase me 175/60r13s and come up with 3 different brands. Maxxis $78 ea, Achilles $88 ea and Nankangs $105 ea.

I ended up choosing Achilles. But when my mate went to order them they said they have none left and they are discontinued. So i went with Nankangs but then same thing happened, none in stock. Then i went with the Maxxis ones but long story short I ended up having to pay $108 each instead of $78!

Not just that, I wanted 5 but they only had 4!

Maybe just my bad luck but i know that lower profiles for 13s are running thin.

I had no problems get 205/80 (or something close like that)

But that looked like I was ready to go offroad
