Tyres - or as You guys say Tires :-)

[SimonRogers]

I know it's difficult in North America to find tires in the correct sizes and types.  Particularly in 13".

 

I am thinking aloud here having provided a number of customers over the years shipping 4 tires at a time = costly!

 

Is there any gain - someone able to partner with me where we can take an anual order (or however often is required) to send over a container of tires.  I can do the legwork and ordering and payment here and I need someone over there who could distribute the tires.

 

It may just not be possible - US shipping costs I know are significantly more than UK/European costs.  (We ship a pair of tires for $20) Yes its all by road.

 

We could accommodate different makes and sizes.

 

Let me know if there is demand and or if I seem to be living in another universe!

I like this idea—Honestly I've been thinking about this as I've been afraid to even ask for a shipping quote for a set of Advan A052s from the UK.

The 13" size doesn't appear to be sold here.

 

Nova ZZR/ZZS I'm not as worried about since presumably Roger Kraus Racing will have them eventually.

 

 

I'm not really in a position to facilitate this though, perhaps one of the US Caterham dealers would be open to it?

Anything that makes it easier for me to get 13s, I support. Right now it's a PITA and they can't be hoarded due to expiration and track day rules so it's a repeating need to order.
