I don't want to spend to much but I also don't want a crappy tire. Should I go to walmart? or discount tire? any good places you guys know of or any good tire brands I should be looking at? I just wanted some opinions before I go out and buy. oh yea there 18'' gunmetal wheels.

 

..Big - o

 

whats big o?

 

I have 2 brand new pirelli 215 45 18 still all wrapped up. Check out my garage sale for pics and price and let me know if you're interested.

 

I have BFG g-Force Sports. Great tire, but not cheap.

I've ridden on Kuhmo Ecsta ASTs twice and love them for $70/tire.

 

This is what discount tire is offering

Kumho Ecsta SPT 140.00 per tire

Yokohama ADVAN Sport 204.00 per tire

Good deal?

Grab some Nitto NeoGen's off DiscountTire.com They're amazing tires and arent too pricey either.

 

i like tireeasy.com very fast shipping and very cheap... but the tires are old... not used just made a year or so ago, nothing wrong with that as long as they rotate them so the oil in the tire doesnt go to one spot and creat a flat spot

 

kumho ecsta good tire good prce to

 

 

i put the bridgestone potnzas on mine and they r damn good

 

I'm in the same boat, need tires very badly (realized how badly yesterday while doing an oil change). Has anyone had any experience with the Goodyear Eagle GT? They are a relatively new tire but tirerack.com seems to like them and I has connections to the local Goodyear dealer. I drive it hard and would like a tire that lasts. I'll be balancing and mounting them myself so that's no issue in terms of pricing.

nope live in indiana and there all over the place

 

Fail At Quoting lol...

 

I'm going with Goodyear performance tire. There putting a slighty bigger width on they said there is more options and it will save me money.

 

Why dont you just go to Bruces Tire Inc.. They have been a family business since 1936.. They do tires wheels brakes shocks alignments oilchange and road service.!

 

I put the tires on there huge !! As i was pulling into my drive way cause its on a slope i heard the wheels scraping the car ? Its that normal?

Went from an 45R18 to a 45WR18

 

225/45/18 are a larger diameter than stock. I would have gotten 225/40/18's. If they are rubbing, take them back.

 

I don't know what there return policy is I bet its a bitch! They convinced my to get these bigger tires and said "SS drivers put these on all the time !" I was really really weary about it and almost said no but i didn't. I'll give them a call tomorrow and tell them. I'll go with your size I take it that size looks good and handles good? The 45R18's looked SWEET and rode great until they threw the W into the picture.

 

big o is in the midwest, basiclly like a firestone tire shop or local tire shop thats all. Havent seen one in louisiana yet

 

BFG KDW's
225-40-18
long lasting used mine all summer and put over 20k driving back and forth to the track in palmer,alaska.
thats 300miles each way three times a month for 3 months and then driving around on thease choppy asphult streets and there ready for another summer of abuse. the stock tires were gone before a summer was up, screw pirellis

 

I got mine at discount tire. They offer a the free replacemnts and free rotate an balances for the life of the tire. They are also reasonably priced.

 

Will discount tire give me the runaround over returning tires that have been drove off the lot? Even though this is there screw up?

The "W" is the load rating. It has nothing to do with the size of the tire. 225 is the width of the tire in mm and 45 is the sidewall height as a percentage of the width. That is why they are bigger. The stock tires are 215/45/18's. 225/45/18's are .3" bigger than stock.
