new centipedes in town

Post by big red »

the new 36 centipedes have landed [ only 20 sets ] but havn't been dot approved yet.
i would like a set of 12.5 wide centipedes but i bet it will be a while before the general public get a set. :cry:

DOT?
I didn't think we had DOT in Aust :finger:
Any indication on the $$ damage or when a larger shipment might hit....more improtantly are they considering anything in the 37-38" size????

LOL, ok. Thanks BigRed

Not thinking too well. I thought they must have revised the tread pattern or something.

I am working on Chris Hummers RR ATM and have been talking about the new tyres, He picked them up today and only 5 sets have been sent out.
One set has gone missing already, he thinks they went at Melb airport. :? :shock: If you see some strange looking Simex tyres kicking around please ring Chris. :wink:
NOW ABLE TOO SAY WHAT I WANT WITHOUT FEAR OF LOOSING SALES.
