Tire Quote, what do you think?

Just dropped by a local tire place in Tulsa, OK. I got a quote for all 4 Falken 912s.

2) 225/50/18
2) 245/45/18

for 750 with tax included and Nitrogen filled.

Is this a good deal?

That seems high to me.
I usually get my tires from tires-easy.com.
I looked up those exact tire sizes and brand and the total came to $464.
They ship the tires to any tire shops and you'll probably pay another $40-$70 for mount and balance.
You're saving about $280.
Good luck.

Forgot about shipping.
It's actually really reasonable, so you'll still be saving a good amount of cash.

Sounds like a pretty good deal to me, if you like the Falkens go for it man.

Hey, I saw your sig. How are the Toyo Proxes 4? Those were another set of tires that I was looking at but I couldn't find too many reviews on them.

I love my toyo's so far I have only had them on for about 3k but I love the grip these things have on dry road. They aren't a very noisy set of tires either. I got all-seasons vs. A summer set just to be safe in my area between putting on my snows. The only thing I found to be not so great but not bad either is the wet traction. Overall I would reccomend them, great set of rubber if you ask me.
