No, not for this week. Tires cost darn too much. I will save it up for fall/winter season so this rims will on my car in Spring 2009. It is August right now. Pretty soon so that's mean summer car is going cover it up. frown

Well, my dad have a good point in spring 2008. I buy new tires for winter beater. I plan get tires from tirerack.com but he told me it is bad idea because if I have someone in tire business install me but tires went bad so I'm kind stuck because it is not tire business's fault. It is not their tires that they install for me. It is tirerack but they are just online website. So I rather tire company in my local area. If they f**ked up then I get tire warranty from local tire company better.

My experiences with tire rack have been perfectly fine. For the winter car, I recommend BF Goodrich Traction T/A's they are great in the snow, and great all season, actually. You shouldn't have any reason for a warranty claim, mine are lasting incredibly well on both the GTP and the SE.

One thing to look at when you buy tires online is what is the markup for mount and balance because you didn't buy the tires from the place that is mounting them? I bought mine online and I ended up spending more then I saved in the long run.

True, depends on the shop. My guys were dirt cheap in that regard, because it wasn't a TIRE shop, it was your average repair shop. As always, caveat emptor. Make sure you do your homework.

Yeah, tire discounter told me about this BF Goodrich tire but I won't drive it on winter season. That's why I have my other winter beater car.

Anyway, I'm thinking get summer tire like this. It is not that bad.

I like that tire also but it doesn't come in a compatable size with the torque star wheels. So you definately need aftermarket rims to get that tread pattern.
