Drag Racing Tyres - BEAR - 18-08-2006
Any views on what to use for stock bikes/wheels? Heard Shinko do a suitable tyre. <i></i>
Re: Drag Racing Tyres - pan - 18-08-2006
Shinkos are great. Most guys that use them swear by them, here and in the US...
I got mine on special, $240 for the set, fitted!!!

Re: Drag Racing Tyres - BEAR - 19-08-2006
So, are they good all around or just drag racing? I have a spare set of wheels which currently have slicks fitted, and I thought of just getting a rear Shinko for drag racing rather that chewing up the Michelin. Sounds good from what you say, just wondering why you bought a pair? <i></i>
Re: Drag Racing Tyres - BEAR - 19-08-2006
Looks like the 003 is the type required, but where do you get them in Oz or more specifically Perth? <i></i>
Re: Drag Racing Tyres - pan - 19-08-2006
They're great for drag racing and excellent on the road too. Shayne had them on from QLD to Jindy and back, did plenty of rolling burnouts too... and they went really well.
I've had mine on for a couple of weeks now and just came back from doing all types of road around Sydney and twisties up north, and they are very sticky.
Not sure where you could get them from, but if you look at the details on the "Sydney Special tyre deal" thread, contact Craig White... he may have a contact out your way. <i></i>

Thanks Pan, will do. <i></i>
Re: Drag Racing Tyres - BEAR - 21-08-2006
Something strange here. Can't find a Whites racing Products in the white pages, but a WPR racing. That number is a fax!
Has anyone got an address for Craig White's business? <i></i>
Re: Drag Racing Tyres - pan - 21-08-2006
Don't know an address. He has a big truck he transports his gear to tracks with... I got my tyres done at his home.
Try the Mobile 0413 461 353... <i></i>
