tire rack has the BFG g-sport super sports for 135 a piece...those are a good tire and not a bad price....and holy crap did the price of tires go up haha. In all honesty id say wait till u can afford a good set of tires. U do get what u pay for and its not something id personally go on the cheap route with. U never know what can happen.

And it's the only part of the car that touches the road.

true but I've dealt with cheap tires for a while so if I jump on the rims now I'll hold out for better rubber. but I'd really like to get them on the car as soon as I can....

I can get my hands on
continentals
yokohama's
hankook's
nitto's
general's
bfg's
falken's
kumho
fuzion
and a few other no names.

all under $140ea.
just means I'd need to come up with more $$

or buy the tires I can get now and live with it. it's not like I'm going to the track on a weekly basis, or fkn around all the time. so if I go lower cost and get ok quality I'll be happy.

I know there's better stuff out there, but it's all in what I'm looking for and willing to wait for.

Hey man do you. I know the feeling. You got the cash in hand for the wheels and it would just seem stupid to leave them sitting around in their boxes in the garage for months when they can be all happy on the T/A. Get what you want and just save for better ones down the road. As I always say its YOUR car and if youre happy with it then everyone else can straight FUCK OFF!!!!! lol

shopping around for rubber sux cuz the deal I can get from OEW is soo much more tempting than waiting.

coopers
BFG's
Hankook
Nitto's

That's an amazing price on Nitto Extremes (and the DRs too), I'd go for it.

*LS1* Queen 02-25-2010 10:45 PM

ILuvPizzaTimes10 02-25-2010 11:07 PM

I think I paid $150 for the Extremes and $160 for the DRs... :gripe: Although that did include shipping and I had the DRs heat cycled at $15 each IIRC
