but then there is the factor that you have to wait for them to get there, that is my point.

I did my research on tires. I know what i got i knwo what price i was looking for. I was willing to accept $10 more for them to be installed locally so i didn't have to wait, but as soon as they gave me that price quote i didn't have to anymore. I got the cheaper. Tire Rack is a rip off, they give you a list of their installers that charge you out the ***. If you'd read up on their reviews, well then, you might know a couple more things.

Before i do business online i always check up their customer reviews.

I always check up reviews on what i'm getting also.

I'm not as dumb as everyone sees me as.

Here we go again . Anyway, I got two BFG 275/40/17's, slightly used, off another board for $125 including shipping and I'm going to be getting two Kumho 285/40/17's off tirerack for $270 with shipping. Then I'll bring them to the shop my brother works at and he'll mount them and balance them for me AND do an alignment. How's that? Under $400 for a 17" tire package mounted and balanced, BEAT THAT !!!

therckid

well considering they are used, thats a decent price. But ibet i could find a better way.

123jon321

Well, if I had bought new front tires from tirerack I would still be paying under $500 for everything.

therckid

well yeah....



anyways, its abouthis new wheels not the tires.

Great point, this is getting off track. Great choice nolan, I think those rims are going to look awesome on your car.

SOLID LIFTER

Let's look back in time and see who brought up tires.

Ah yes!

thanks 123jon321, i cant wait to get the rims, i just cant wait to get them , i wish it didnt take 6-8 weeks to get them , but i guess thats that price i pay for good high quality rims.

therckid

hey man where did you buy your rims from? I was told you can get them for much cheaper then their website says, i'd liek to see hwo cheap their rims really are.

nolanr0413

sigh......if only we could all afford Zeneties sp?

nolanr0413

yeah but i think those zenettis have spacers to make them the right offset, i would never run like that . I just dont feel safe riding around liek that no matter how many people swear by that , and plus they look crappy when you get up close and see the spacers. How do you know those boyd rims arent fakes, did u check out boyds website and see that they have been having problems with people making fakes and then using a boyd sticker. I feel fine with the money i spent. Ill have the rims as long as i have the car "which shold be as long as i live" but i know that they are from a reputable dealer, who boyd reccomends.

therckid

ooooo good point
