    Default R Tyres for the Q4

    I have been looking for non slick tyres to use on the Q4 for track use (the so called 'R' tyres) - but there is little available in 205/45/16.

    I came up with these.. Federal 595RS.

    what are you all using as a track tyre - what size?

    thanks.. Jimn~

    They are 16" Speedlines from the "Sportpack" 155, they were sold at factory...an Alfa dealer may be able to get them still but not sure.

    Send him back? Why? Is he Argentinian?
    We do not accept returns.

    Dario,
    It?s going to be impossible to find those wheels down here.
    I don?t think that they were imported.

    They are the 16" Sportpack wheels...plenty in the UK (black, grey and white) but shipping would be horrendous!

    NO WAY!!!
    We have so many politics down here, and many of them (99%) like to keep money from others....I mean "thieves", "ladri", "ladrones", (whatever language you can use).

    I prefer to pay horrible shipping costs!

    Don't know how much it cost to send your suspension....but I priced up sending four Sport springs to Argentina for someone on 155.org. It was going to cost ?120 with Royal Mail...the springs were free!

    Wheels are much heavier...but perhaps a courier or pallet would be a cheaper way.
