I live in Canada and the prices are freakin rediculous!! I got a price on 335/35/17s by Michelin, They're $667.40 per tire!!! These are the same tires as the early Vipers had. (sweet ass tires). Anyways let me know if that seems outrageous or not. As for wheels I am thinking Torq Thrust IIs by American Racing. (I think thats what they're called.) I need the 11's out back and I think 9's in the front maybe I'll stick with the stock size 8's. I am currently running 8's all around with 245s and they rub upfront when steering sharply so I don't know about 9's. Do wheel spacers work on the front wheels? I am going to need wheel spacers for the back for sure. Anyone know how big wheel spacers can go? So would anybody be able to tell me a price which I should be loking for; towards a pair of those beefy viper tires, the wheels and wheel spacers? (If you could let me know wha currency you mean too, it would help.) Thanks alot!

Stay away from michelin tires. They are good but not worth the money in my opinion. I am guessing that is CDN money for that price but they are still about 225 each in US dollars. Go for something a little cheaper that will work just as good. Check out tirerack.com and see if they will ship to you.

That seems way to much for those tires. Also, I agree that Michelins are good tires but not worth the money. Prices being equal, I would probably choose a different tire anyway. Have you looked at anything else?

Other tires that size aren't rated nearly as good as michelins, and for the price difference I might as well save for the michelins. Any info on the wheels or wheel spacers?
