DRIVING UP TO THE BAY! questions!

alright everybody. im actually coming up north (originally from the east bay area "San Ramon") and its been awhile since ive been up here.

My tires are almost bald and was wondering if there are any good deals for new tires out here!!! Im in desperate need of new front tires! (255/35/19)

Does anybody know where i can go on saturday to get a good deal?

Maybe even a meet this weekend? haha. Thanks in advance!
Hopefully people up here are as friendly as people down south that ive met from the forums.

I don't know about local deals on tires but you should come out for our drive on Saturday. You might have fun if your tires aren't that bald.

You could also check costco as well, though I don't know if they carry 19's in stock.

Check local firestone's if you want Bridgestone tires.

Costco has to order them, they don't have our sizes on hand. But not sure where you're going to be exactly, but when I bought tires for my Volks, Les Schwab had the T1Rs in stock for me. You can check there if there's one nearby.

What time are you gonna have your tires on by? You might be able to make it out to the Santa Cruz drive.
