Hi mate,

I love the look of Billboards

You can try Roger Kraus in the US:

Going on what I've read elsewhere on this forum they're NOT DOT approved and thus not street legal.

It would be nice if they made a replica set that were street legal.

Best,
Anth

Benny,
I just got a set from roger Kraus a couple of weeks ago, with freight to Sydney they were about $1660. He might not have any in stock at the moment, i had to wait several weeks until he got them from Goodyear. When he told me they were in he said he had sold all the sets he got in. If you do get them from US try to get them to state the value is less than $1000 AU. or you'll get hit with G.S.T and import duty, Hope this helps...

Rob..

There you are Les. We were all worried! Thought that Redcliffe may have succumbed to global warming .... or that Tony Abbot had sent you all to Nauru!

I have a set of 600/700-15 g7 tires otherwise known as "blue streaks" or "Sportscar Specials that I'm planning on selling. They came with my car as an extra set of tires that were used for one track day...have plenty of tread left. I've shipped to Australia before using IPS (International Parcel Service) which seems to be the most reasonable for these types of shipments. These tires have the "Goodyear" writing in a smaller font compared to the billboard style, but look nicely "vintage". I will let them go for $600 plus actual shipping. Let me know if interested and I can get you pictures.. allen.bishop@volvo.com
