That's not a bad deal at all.

The only thing I would suggest is to read up on different tire types and get whatever is best suited for your road conditions.

I went with Dunlop WinterSports because they're a decent all around winter tire with a higher speed rating than most winter tires. I do a lot of highway driving so I wanted something that could withstand a good 65-70mph cruise when the roads were dry.

yeah, i got my winter wheels in 05 and couldnt find steelies for my car through tirerack or discount tire direct, and i spent like a little more than $150 more than that, but now i live in NY and the amount of salt they ise here is rediculous, so i found a 5 speed 93 ranger with 89K for $300 ... yay no more winters for my slowbalt! and now i can save up more money for summer tires while i use my winter tires.

Isn't this in appearance section? Steelies are soo ugly on our cars, I have a good deal for some sweet alloy wheels and tires that barely touched the ground (5 bolt pattern only) http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...175576017&rd=1 Thread jackked! gotcha bitch

it was moved.. i originally posted it in the wheel/tire section.



i have my stock 18s here.. i might just throw blizzacks on there...

kinda pricey, but that is the reason i still have the stockers...


(unless i can get the car sold )
