Agree if you are selling. Nittos also a possibility--check with Robert Demarco.--Bob

originally i thought that was a good plan. however, when i've shown the car i can almost see the wheels going 'round about how much cheaper the price should be because it needs new tires. also, there's a little concern fm folks out of town who might want to drive it home. who knows?

I agree with the goodyears, only Y rated tire in correct size, but if selling car then they are pricey, I just got a few months ago out the door, taxes, disposal, mount, stems, road force balance, $606 for 2 rears, and felt that was a great price
