I found a good tire shop in Orlando

I want to spread the word on a good shop in Orlando that actually cares about your wheels and car. The place is 3D Tire, Inc., 419 Kennedy Blvd., Orlando, FL 32810 407-875-3399. It is over by Orlando Infiniti, for whom they do tire and wheel work, such as the coupe currently on the showroom floor fitted with 20 inch PIAAs.

To be honest, the place is a two stall hole in the wall place that you wouldn't likely take a performance car to, but they have a nice Coates tire machine and good, quick service. I had my tires drop shipped from Tirerack.com to their place. They used a torque wrench at my request and were careful removing the lug nuts and tires so as to not mar the finish. It cost me $15 per wheel to dismount old tires, remount new ones, and balance. And it took about 30 minutes or less. I found them through Tirerack.com's recommended installers where they received good ratings from other Tirerack buyers. They are currently building a new place just down the street.

I'm not advertising for them, but just trying to spread the word about a place that won't mar your wheels or nick your Brembos.

What size did you go with 245/40/18 in the front and 245-255/45/18 in the rear? Looks good. Congrats.

I went non-staggered. 235/45/18, which is the same diameter as the stock 215's that were on there and the same size as the '05 18's that come on the sedan. I wanted to keep the same diameter as stock so the speedo and everything would be OK.

I do want to put Neff's old coupe springs on her to lower her a little.
