im doubtful of this but maybe pro acccessories in QLD do a Avon in that pattern?? it sounds like you have tryed just about everyone like i have except for a couple. Also Shinko

you may have to import one your self. i had to do that a few times to get some odd ball 16 and 17 inch tyres and its starting to get that way with some 19 inch ones aswell. i have to import them from overseas when left with no other option as no importer brings those sizes in sometimes

this is one thing that i have metioned to sales reps before. And when ever filling out surveys 'please keep bringing in old pattern/oddball sizes'

I checked out the Kings catalogue but couldn't find anything.  The only trials uni they do seems to be in 21", 17" & 14".
Mcleods were my first attempt.  Their catalogue lists everything I need but upon inquiry, all sold out and discontinued.
Man, there is some great brainstorming going on here.  Thanks guys!

Freakshow,

Thanks, what brand are they?  I've been searching everywhere and haven't found anything!

Call Davo  (Dave Parker Ph 0403364658) - he runs the Gillman speedway track,  tell him you spoke to Kerry from pitmans who bought some 19" from you this week for his Dirt tracker. 

you should be able to get them at wholesale from $110 cash that way.  IF he wont sell them to you call me and ill buy them and post to you.  they are 3.75 x 19 SW05 or sw03 Mitas is the branding he is the Aussie wholesaler./  they come in 3 sipes or 5 siped  ( hence the SW3 or 5 )  you would be able to also buy them from MJR or one of the other speedway shops but you pay bough $140 ?,

I have a pair in my hand as we speak, if it all gets too hard for you , pay the postage and ill send you one or both these and grab some more myself he has a warehouse of them.

yes that was who i was thinking of (Dave Parker). ive done about all the searching through my listings but found a tyre on one of my bikes called a Mitsutomo. dont know who sells them though.

if your still stuck, im pretty sure www.denniskirk.com in USA lists all those cheng shins that McLeods dont bring in anymore.

Thanks guys.
I'm gonna try and get my hands on some IRC's as they have a good all round use compound.  This bike will be for dirt road riding.  The Australian IRC importer doesn't carry them and can only get them in a quantity of 25 per tyre but my friend at the importer is gonna look into what he can do on his next order for me.  Even then I'll have to wait about 4 months to get them.  I'll try Dennis Kirk as well.  Thanks guys!
Hey Freakshow, how are those Yammies going that you imported a few months ago?

After next weeknds final round, Im Rebuilding them for next year.  SO i have a pre 70 trackmater, a pre 75 Champion 250 and a Champion 360, then im going to GEt my VMX shit sorted and set up the good 250MX the 360mx and keep on TM.  the rest of them are going to be sold off as i need the room and now i know what i want and like.  im also looking to buy a 2 valve jawa and do some rides at gillman next year. Also spoke to Dave about us holding one round of the STate title DT's there for a change.    So next Season is already looking good !

Have re read this posts on this topic a couple of times. I know it's probably just me, but for the life of me I could'nt find where Cowboy Don actually mentioned the size he was chasing. Anyway if it's a 400X18 Trials universal Les at Mainly Maico is a good contact for IRC in 2 Ply.
