G'day from down under

Hey All,

Recently bought a D3 HSE V8. Having probs with getting proper offroad tyres, it has 255/55/R19's. Has anyone found same prob or over there do you have a larger range. If so what brands??

Also here are some links of my D3. First one is my obvious inexperience with a 4WD, didnt know about letting air out of the tyres etc derrr Wink

Yep its a Bentley Continental GT, but alas not mine, but my ol man's. We wanted to take a best of british pic ( he is English which makes me a halfy), hence the pic. Im on about 8 acres with a reasonably steep 200 metre driveway and he has bought his other car around ( ML500 poor baby) but this time he took the bentley up the driveway after raising the air suspension. Beautiful car, very much a gentlemans car. Me Ill be looking at the Aston Martin Vantage when it comes out Very Happy .
