Wanted 90/90-18 and 110/80-18 used crap tyres, dirt cheap!

I am after a couple of road tyres JUST for set up purposes and to keep the floor of the workshop from scratching the new rims while I build a race bike up.... no point buying soft race tyres now when they will be sitting for god knows how long before the bikes ready to go.

Must be 90/90-18 and 110/80-18 sizes so I can work out the right fit for the tyres on the bike.
I can pick up next time I drive to Hamilton from Paihia in a few weeks if that helps?

I am planning to use new Heidenau race tyres, 90/90 18" K44, 110/80 18" K65 when the bikes ready so if someone had some used versions of those tyres it would be perfect.

My new stainless spokes arrived from the USA today so I will be building my wheels with new Boranni style rims and be needing tyres soon! 90/90-18 are quite easy... their a are a few brands on trademe cheap second hand, but the 110/80-18 rear tyre is proving harder to find....
Any ideas?

Thanks to bikebitz.co.nz in Tauranga who have offered me a 90/90-18 for the $7.50.. the cost of the courier!
So I will pay him extra for his trouble. Nice. :)

Now I just just need to nail down a worn out 110/80-18 road tyre....

Nice free trye arrived from bikebitz.co.nz in Tauranga!! Thanks guys :)

I have also worked out that the 100/90 currently on the front can go on the back for now and be within 2mm of the rolling diameter of the 110/80-18 I will fit in the end.... just 5mm each side smaller which I can compensate for when I measure things.

Worn 110/80-18 still wanted!!:)

Gavin
