Thanks for the link!


This is the tire that I'm eyeing right now. http://www.discounttiredirect.com/direct/findTireDetail.do?sw=false&ar=40&pc=28665&cs=275&rd=17

Seems like a good tire for the moment. The raining season will be here soon in Cali so I'm more concern with that. What do you guys think?

That tires looks nice...and the price looks good...

On my 9in rims on my 2000 Gt I had Bridgestone Potenza RE730's...but they were around 180 a piece I believe...but had a similar tread pattern and were good gripping tire...

If you want a tire thats pretty good in ALL weather conditions, take a look @ the Michelin Pilots. I had a set of the Pilot XGTs on my Avenger (before she was stolen) and the had amazing grip on the road in all conditions. I was most impressed when I was forced to drive through a 16" snow drift (it came up to the top of my license plate). The car kept in complete control through (very soft) stops and starts. I hear the Pilot Sport is even better but not sure its worth the extra money. Check out the reviews on both @ www.tirerack.com

Well since money is an issue I narrowed down to either the falken or the kumho. Which is the better tire out the two?

What about some Yokohama's, are they any good? I need new tires too. Also, the Nitto 555R Drag Radial, how long do they last on a daily driver?

I ordered a bolt kit from summitracing.com. I told them what car and rims I had and they gave me the info. They are cone seat lug nuts with 1/2" x 20 thread pattern. Does that sound about right? The part number is MCG-84530. The new ones look a little smaller in lenght compared to my stock lug nuts.
