<p>
	Hello Brains-Trust,
</p>

<p>
	Am looking for good tire shops/ persons in Brisbane.  I need to get the tires looked at on my family car.  Currently has Pirelli Cinturato P7s (with plenty of tread left) but I noticed some hairline cracking in the rubber &amp; I just wanted to get advice whether they are still safe to use.  Wanted someone who isn't just going to try &amp; sell me a new set of rubber.  The car is a 2012 so potentially may be the original tires though the car has only done 40 thousand k's. 
</p>

<p>
	cheers,
</p>

<p>
	Jason
</p>

<p>
	Hey guys!
</p>

<p>
	Looking into different rims for a 911 sc targa with a wide body kit.
</p>

<p>
	I love the look of the standard fuchs with the black and silver dish surround.
</p>

<p>
	Does anyone know where I could get 17x8 and 17x9 with the 17x9's having a massive offset. 
</p>

<p>
	Feel free to post your wheels and where you got them or suggestions <img alt=":)" data-emoticon="" height="20" src="//content.invisioncic.com/o114742/emoticons/default_smile.png" srcset="//content.invisioncic.com/o114742/emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" title=":)" width="20" /></p>

<p>
	Maybe old news but super cheap auto appear to be tinkering in the world  of tyres and appeasr to  have a pay it forward/ back deal on at the moment.  Eg ponzy scheme on discounts.  
</p>

<p>
	Surprise to see they have michi pilot sport' 2s for 996' tt's for rears .  skimmed to fine print on T' s and c's, but   me  thinks a strategically organised  two tyre blockchain style  reverse ponzy scheme setup via a pfa thread as the clearing house  could potentially save a buck or two depending on stock levels.  Just don't be first or second in the blockchain.

<p>
	HI all lovely forum people.
</p>

<p>
	Just got the wife a Porsche Cayenne Deisel 2011.<br />
	Needs a major service and don't think I'll be paying the big service costs Porsche Melbourne charge.
</p>

<p>
	Use to have a ex BMW specialist for my X5 but now looking for a Porsche specialist.
</p>

<p>
	Does anyone know a EX-Porsche Mechanic that has started his own shop?<br />
	Ideally nearly North Melbourne or within 10-15km of CBD.
</p>

<p>
	Hope you can help <img alt=":)" data-emoticon="" height="20" src="//content.invisioncic.com/o114742/emoticons/default_smile.png" srcset="//content.invisioncic.com/o114742/emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" title=":)" width="20" /></p>

<p>
	Hi everyone
</p>

<p>
	My 81 Turbo  has a set of mint sports seats.
</p>

<p>
	However, they spent some time in north QLD and the mound took hold (like what I did there ...?)
</p>

<p>
	 Need a full rebuild as I think the smell is impregnated in the seat stuffing. 
</p>

<p>
	Anyone know who is best in Melbourne for this?
</p>

<p>
	Thanks. 
</p>

<p>I believe that when Gary closed his Richmond workshop some of the staff moved to other trimmers. I was told that the guy who did the steering wheels moved with the equipment to another trimmer in Richmond? I was told this by Rob Raymer and we had traded messages and he was going to get me the details on his return from vacation; just another example of the knowledge that will be sadly missed along with Rob. </p><p>If anyone has details could you please post, I am looking to get a Porsche Wheel restored/repaired. I had used Gary in the past and was always happy with his work. </p><p>Cheers</p><p>Dave</p>
