Does anyone here own Infiniti's anymore?

You don't have to twist my arm to meet; of course if you do come up here in spring I am sure the boys & I can show you around!

RE: local shops - they don't price match tirerack since it's a US site. The difference on a set of 19" PS2's can be $500+. Example:

Tirerack, 2x 245x35x19 + 2x 275x30x19 = Total: $1,390.00 USD, $90 to ship, a possible $175 in taxes = ~$1700 USD with tax (which you can avoid), so about $1850cad.

1010tires = Total: $2,384.02 CDN no tax.

Yes.

But with US prices... there's very little difference between the two.

Up here it's huge... Michelin is really screwing us.
Almost $1000 difference on my 19s
Yes, I wonder why. The tires are made 100km from my house.

So it's actually cheaper to order from tirerack?

Anyhow...I guess I'll be driving the M up then. Since the infiniti crowd is disappearing..:P

Hey I'm still here and yes I still own a G35. Not all of us have abandoned Infiniti It's just winter right now and nobody is talking about meets this early.

I'll still be around with my G35 in the spring and I'm sure a lot of others will be as well but not if it's only going to be BMW meets.

Hope to see you up here this spring.

Or another US vendor, yes. Most US wheel re-sellers will match tireracks prices too, so like Ian a lot of guys just get a deal with wheels + tires.

That's weird, I remember Ian saying something about not modding the M.

Maybe they're just "spare parts", just in case
