Where do you buy your tires (online,)
who has the widest selection,
and
recommend me a tire in the $70-80 range. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='

'> I'm looking at the Yokohama AVS-I and Pirelli P7000s I think they were... what else is good?

Thank you! <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/satisfied.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':satisfied:'>

www.tires.com

I think the next time I'm gonna try Dunlop SP Sports for AutoX wheels.  Hope that helps

I'm going to get falken azenis from tires.com. Supposed to have AWSOME grip but rather poor wet traction when theres standing water with a treadwear of 200.
Seems like its always a tradeoff between grip, wet traction, and treadwear <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'>

RE: no longer back ordered...they are on their way, should get them late next week. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/thumbs-up.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':thumbsup:'>

Got a quick ? tho...do I need to get an alignment once I put these on or just the standard mount and ballance?

sil80 · 05-01-2002, 01:38 PM

DSC - unless your car pulls to one side now there is no reason you will need a alignment once you get new tires... but like you said just make sure you get your tires ballanced

I'm pretty sure it would be just the standard balance and mount if you're just changing your tires.  Keep us updated on how the tires are when you get them on because I might consider Falkens.

Good stuff, thanks for the suggestions.
Any more? I'm trying to find someone with Dunlop W10s in my size (haha sounds kinda strange) -- that is, 205/55 15.

Keep them coming!

Fourgig · 05-02-2002, 12:46 PM

I think you may have a hard time finding W10's now.  They are getting replaced by the FM901's.
