On another note. Ive been trying to get hold of some Toyo R888 Proxes semi slicks i can only find 1 dealer in Brisbane who stocks theses and they want $447 a piece, does anyone know where i can grab these online by any chance ? unfortunately tire rack don't stock toyo :'(

Try "St George Tyres Online" - they have an ebay store. A bit hit and miss as to what they have at any one time but I've seen R888s on there (not sure if they were MINI size). Steve's bought off them before.
