Use these guys, I've brought a few orders in now and they do Aussie too. Have Tire Rack ship them to their warehouse in CA, then let Mainfrieght handle it from there.

A lot cheaper than what you've been quoted!

R888 have a 100 tw rating. U can run in the Good Guys autocross events but with those tires your times will not count or qualify you. There rules are 200 tw minimum.

Shipping to CA generally adds tax to the order. There are several ways around it, though. Depends how switched-on the seller is. One is to use another delivery address (or company, outside CA) - Or companies like ShipTo. The other is to have the correct paperwork dealt & received, showing the delivery will be outside USA. Tax shouldn't be charged, but I've dealt with a ton of people with blinkers over the years
