Ringing round tryng to get a set of 165/70/10 A032's

No one seems to have them i have tried, camskill, huddersfield spares, midland wheels, gates tyres, black circles.

Anyone know of a secret stash??

End of the month till yoko has more in apparently!

[Purple Tom]

Try Demon Tweeks, thats where I got my last set from, surprisingly cheap as well!!

[Mini_Magic]

I think Mini Sport have them in stock, not cheap though.

Are rocking horses rare these days?

[Jammy]

Try a PM to Modyboy, he got some recently.

Demon tweeks is availability in 28 days plus

And mini sport had 2 which would be ideal if i needed 2 but hey if you need 2 go for it.

And PM sent, thanks.

I had the same problem mate. Yoko apparently only make them in batches. I went to Tweaks as it is local, but they told me it'd be ages before they could get some. Might be worth a try again soon though as it was over a month ago that I tried.

I ended up having to get A008s though

[MiNi FiZ]

whats wrong with A008s?

[Guess-Works.com]

chalk and cheese compared to 32's

[Jammy]

I'd still say A008s are better than most tyres, comparable to Falkens, but better than Dunlop SPs (in 10") and much better than Ca-'ditch finder'-mac.

008's are ace in dry smooth tarmac, and if its newly laied tarmac awesome

Only thing I don't like about 032s is the road noise (although it does make a beautiful hum slowing down for traffic lights!).

I love that noise! Its quite soothing at higher speeds, so much so that my missus can happily fall asleep in my Mini at 80mph!! Although I only started hearing it once I did the Vauxhall conversion and got rid of the straight cut box

I knew that Yoko made them in batches, and I can kinda see why there'd be a shortage of them over the winter, its not as if demand for those tyres in Europe is going to be very high, but I bet they sell quite a few to the Mini owners in Japan!

Nothin wrong with Camacs jammy

Hope your talking about 80mph when abroad and sticking to forien speed limits Tom

Bet you miss that whine of the straight cut drops Go on admit it.

Was talking to simon@minispares earlier about A032s and he said that yoko only produce them in the race season. He still hasnt got a date of when yoko are going to re-start production, so go and buy some Camacs
