90-95% tread - still has couple of those lil flicky bits sticking out the side [like brand new push bike tyres]
$750 - Don't like my price? - Let me know in pm.
Wanna make a stupid offer? - try www.racv.com.au
I don't think you can get this size in Australia or in America. [JDM BRO!] Don't take my word for it though.
If I don't get any decent offers I'm just gonna have to keep them so please don't try to lowball me.
Here's a snippet of www.tirerack.com

The ADVAN A048 is Yokohama's DOT-Legal Competition tire designed for the drivers of vehicles who participate in autocross competition, track schools, lapping days and circuit-type club racing. The ADVAN A048 was developed from Yokohama racing technology for applications that include the 18-inch rim diameter fitments used on the Porsche 911, Porsche 911 Turbo, Porsche Boxster and others.
On the outside, the ADVAN A048 molds a race-ready compound that provides dry grip over a wide range of temperatures into a 6/32-inch deep, "single block" tread design that increases tread stiffness and features a wide center area that stays in continuous contact with the track to enhance cornering stability, on-center feel and steering response. As the tire's outer shoulder tread wears from hard cornering, the ADVAN A048's directional tread design and symmetric internal construction allows worn tires to be remounted "inside-out" on their wheels to help prolong their life. We suggest shaving ADVAN A048 tires to between 3/32" to 4/32" of tread depth for competitive road racing.
On the inside, the ADVAN A048 features twin steel belts that are reinforced with spirally wrapped nylon cap plies and belt edge strips. The belt package is placed on top of a rounded casing design that allows the tire to predictably handle transitions from straight-line travel to high g-force cornering and back.
Yokohama ADVAN A048 tires feature sidewall styling with subtle black letters. They are available in selected 40-, 35- and 30-series, Y-speed rated sizes for 18" diameter wheels.
