Cheap tires...
#17
Yeah $25/wheel is what i've paid. I have a tire machine in my shop, but Its set up for motorcycle wheels and a 45-50 series 17 is as far as i can go on it.
I pretty reputable shop in Calgary butchered my last set of loose wheel/tires. In leu of repairing the wheel, they "owe" me a mount & balance. It was a year ago though so I hope they remember.

Well i can't win...
Carmodifier took payment, confirmed address, blah blah blah. Tires are 6-8 weeks away though. I tried to deal on the V12's (my first choice), but they are $170 over tirerack.com.
I just can't eat $170 so now i'm going to try my luck with Tire Rack.
$960 cdn delivered for either:
Kumho Ecsta SPT 235/35/19 and 255/35/19
OR
Hankook Ventus V12 225/40 245/40/19
I'm gonna take an hour to think it over and order from tirerack.

Looks like you can get the General UHP's in those sizes for $908 shipped. Just to give you something MORE to think about, LOL!

So in Carmodifers defence:
They were very good to deal with. The price through them on a set of Yokohamas was very close to Tireracks V12 pricing, so i went all cheapo and called them just incase there were some hidden promotions i was missing.
Adam called me back (4 hours later though) and was very accomidating and assured me the price was as good as it would get. I bought in. Did the online order... No confirmation sent by email as it said I would get, so I called earlier today. 2 hours later I get a call back. Tires are 6-8 weeks away.
I asked what he could do on a few other tires and got an email listing what they had to offer. Kumhos, Hankooks and Nankang were quoted. Unfortunately all much too high for e to "keep it Cdn", but they tried and discounted them more then they advertised online.
I ordered Kumho Ecsta SPTs from tire rack this afternon. I got a call double checking shipping address and billing address and confirmed my order. I was old my tires would ship in the morning.
Heres to hoping...
