i got mine from fourbys in QLD, but the price was quoted to me by ryano before he left to go to tyrepower i believe (slacks creek). Either way you can stilll PM him on outers. Add $120 freight though, but i'd already bought rims off them so it'd be crazy to spend $120 shipping rims without having tyres on them.
I'd call Warren's and ask for a price, then depending on what they come back with say something like "any chance you can do them for $190, cos a mate paid that much recently somewhere else" and see what happens... worst case he says no. lol
mitch - the KL71 arent pretty or fancy or anything, but they bloody work! bighorns even if they were available still cost more, and i'm pretty sketpical they're a better tyre than the KL71.

No, you're saying 0.5 inch=25mm. as mentioned, 1 inch actually equals 25.4mm and 0.5"=12.7mm.
I don't mean any offence just saying.
I'm on the lookout for a cheap set of 30" or 31" mudders too.

i have 2" bl, nissan 180sx (s13 chassis....silvia) rear springs and commo shocks. the 180 springs gave me about 1.5-2" lift. but i think they were saggy, got some other coming soon which are sitting very tall in the 180 atm so "hopfully" will give me another inch or so

also new tires + 2nd yr apprenctice wage = long time, you must be on shit money, i did lift, tyres and rims all in 1 month

haha yeah well that was 10 years ago, and the printing award is way lower than most other trades.
that said though the qualification gets me good money now and i work 8-4.30 with 1hr lunch and i enjoy my workplace which is only 20mins in peak hour to drive to =)
by comparison a mate did design at tafe, worked doing invoices and variable data in a mailing house for a few years and is now stacking PVC pipes in canningvale (1hr drive in peak hour) being exposed to toxic fumes etc daily.
