Thanks Pete!!
My brother has ties in with a few 4x4 competition organisers, they use the big tyres for events, hill climbs etc. If he cant get one, might get Trent onto it, he still owes me a favour ;)
 
if anyone knows where I can get a used truck tyre in Melb, I'd really appreciate it!!

probably not a tractor tyre...way beyond my abilities LOL

Just go to a petrol station, wait for the pumps to be empty and the tanker truck will show up. When he goes inside to sign the paperwork, put the truck on blocks and take all it's tyres.
 
Tyre places love giving tyres away. It costs a fortune in fees to dispose of those big tyres and giving it away saves them the fees. Not to mention that they have already charged the machine owner the disposal fee. They keep the cash and you get a tyre.
 
bahahahaha ... excuse me Mr Burly Tyre Salesman....would you mind giving me a hand winching this big ugly truck tyre into the boot?

I mean, I don't want to break a nail or anything, you understand...

:eek:
 
Just watch that he doesn't wreck your car with his forklift. No-one lifts anything anymore, apparently it's bad for you.

I like the dedication but they are made to roll. I'd roll it to the car if I were you and then flip it in. ;)

Just being helpful.

G'day not sure what type of car your dad has, but I think you'll need a ute.

I don't know if any cars boot would be big enough for a tractor tyre!

I'm going for a truck tyre...there is no way I could flip, move or do anything useful with a tractor tyre.... i'm tiny!
but yes, it's possible I may need a ute...

Lol road test them in their carpark, if they are too heavy, flip them back!

At first i laughed, thought it was funny, but then i thought....how's that even gonna work, how would you be able to flip it back?? lol :D

Maybe just go to a different tyre place each weekend, ask to test it out, flip it a few times and then say you changed your mind, or "I'll think about it".

don't forget I'd also have my sledgehammer with me for the hammer test as well. Could you imagine? Ah, this could be an awesome free workout every weekend for laughs... :D

Lol...that would look hilarious, especially if you brought your water bottle, for a few sips between sets. Maybe listen to the iPod as well while sledgehammering those suckers. :D
