Importing tyres

[Greeny_SA]

Motosport.com Used to ship Tires to Aust Or Anywhere in the world for $30-00 /Pair .Due to pressure from the Australian Importers ,They no longer offer this service & On their web site You can't get to their Tire Pages from an Aust Computer address . A Few of us SA blokes bought Avon storm tires for $230-00/pair, Delivered . I Don't know about other people but I Get Pissed off when I am quoted $500-00 for the same set of tires in Aust .The Importers are making all the profit & Making Aust resellers look like greedy prick's, Which I don't think they are . I am investigating a Forwarding address in the USA to get around this as I HATE being RIPPED OFF .I Hope some day the Aust Tire resellers can put pressure on the Importers to enable this system to change ,but I doubt they will allow an end to their gravy train .I have contacted Motosport on more than one occasion to get a definite answer but no reply,so this is only really hearsay at this stage . I have only used Motosport in the past but believe that Jake Wilson & other online USA tire sellers are all related to each other .These company's will still supply some brands but I Won't have french rubbish on my bike .
