Re: Tires
So my tire guys asks if I really need z rated tires? He figures I'll never hit max speed of the tire, which I will not, and certainly will not do it for sustained times.
Can we run a lower rated tire? Although at the prices I'm seeing, not sure it's worth it. |

Re: Tires
I doubt if any tires less than Z rated are available in our sizes?

Re: Tires
I saw this offer From Discount Tire and thought I'd pass it along.
Use coupon code CMOTORS0314 and get $100 off your purchase of $400 or more. Only through the eBay store but a great deal http://stores.ebay.com/Discount-Tire-Direct |

Re: Tires
I got flat spotting on Sumitomos x 315 each day. They unwound after 3 minutes...

Re: Tires
I'm not ready for tires, so he wasn't offering anything. Interesting to know the Nitto's are only W rated.

Re: Tires
