isnt tire rack a vendor? how come we never get any deals? or group buys?

 

tell me about it. i need new tires!!!!

 

if we could get a group buy on some bf goodrich g-force kdws im sure a bunch of people would jump on it...

 

You and me both. But Tire Rack dosent sell the shitty tires I use (Nankang Ultrasport NS-II's), lol.

 

i have the same tires...i love them..they last soooooooooooooo long ive been running nankang since i was 16 and to top it off my parents own a fountaintire/goodyear store and i still go with nankang

 

I like thoes tires too...best bang for the buck. I'm glad they are still "underground", hope the price stays low for many years to come!

 

<<BF Goodrich TA/KDW2...new owner.lol...sick tread design an they bite well...jus hopin they decide to last for at least a year..we all kno those pirelli's stock don't

 

I'd rather get the General Exclaim UHP's over the KDW's...

 

yuck no way..the generals suck...my dad had a set of generals on his truck an they were horrible

 

Were can I pick up some of the Nankang Ultrasport NS-II's?

 

Ive got thoes general's on my balt and i love em...

 

I Have Coopers Andf With 23000 On Them With 8/32nds Left, They Stick Great (when Dry)

 

hmm..welll i havent had them so i can't personally lay an opinion but as far as i kno their truck tires were horrible....my buddy has a set of Nitto Neogen tires an he loves them but they arent that far of a diff tread patter than the yokohama parada tires

 

Truck tires are a whole different ball game compared to summer performance tires.

I have yet to see a bad review of Exclaim UHP's on a sport coupe.

 

i think they are a sponsor more over a vendor. i believe it works that every time you visit tirerack.com by clicking that link on our forum we get money for having it there.

 

my 2 cents- Dores it reall y matter? Remember we all have differnt driving style so tires are goign to work diff on everyones car. Also depends on road conditions and how ur car is moded up. Me personally i dont have either tires but they both get good reviews. One question to all? Did anyone notice the weight on some of these wheels and tires. Cause remember weight uses up Hp at take off and makes a diff when stopping. So for me the generals are better cause they only weight 22 LBS. the other tires weigh 24.3 LBS.. these are weights for a 225-45-18 tire. the generals where on tire rack and the Nankang Ultrasport NS-II's where on this site: http://www.tireco.com/Product_Detail...&ProductID=150. Ffor me in the quest for light tires and wheels im goin wit the generals but i also like the contiextremecontacts- yeah they are not that good but they also only weigh 22 LBs. Has anyone found a Rim that is less than 22 LBS. and costs less than 200 each? Well that will fit our beloved/hated 5x110 bolt pattern? If you do just drop me a email. Cause I'm lookin

 

Exactly, they wont post (that we know of) they just pay to have a little logo by this forum...

 

When it comes to tires, I buy them keeping in mind that I'm going to need every bit of traction I can if I end up in a messed up situation.

So, KDW ftw. Sticks better in dry than most other brands top names, and then comes around and demolishes the puddles.

So, love whatever tires ya want, but just realize your typically giving up on one thing to get another. :-P

 

I was looking at the OZ Canova rims on Tire Rack and they only have them in Bright SIlver in our cars. I wanted the black finished ones! BAH!

 

Give them a call . All it took for me to get OZ Ultraleggera's offered in black for us was to BS with the salesman for a bit and tell them how deprived we are of nice wheels . Within 3 weeks they added the black on the site . OZ and the tire rack are nearly 1 and the same , Tire Rack assembles all the 3piece OZ wheels and have a direct line to requesting new offerings off existing wheels .
