Hey guys,

So I need to grab some new tyres and I am thinking of grabbing some nice rims as well just to get rid of the stockies.

Just wondering what you guys recommend tyre wise? I can get some Kumho's for $185ea fitted and Toyo's for $165ea fitted. Bob Janes have a tyre and wheel package with Bob Jane All-Rounder's for $1100.

Can pick up factory B series rims (like XR17s/18s) for under $500 with decent tread.
