| What are some of the best bang for the buck and the best deals for tires. Currently I have Firehawk GTs that are a bit overdue and will be changed. (Starting a new job thank god.) And from tire rack the replacement GTs are 125 per tire. But I'm not really getting the car too high I just need some nice touring all-season tires. The Firehawks do the job great and were a great tire. But being how the budget is I'm just wondering what people have out there. I saw the stock Conti's on sale but I am staying away from that cause the stories I heard about their life. Anyway picking at people's brains if I could... |

| ill see what rebates and specials we have going on tomorrow and get back to you on it.
i would stay away from the GT's, they are a great tire but at the shop we have seen that they are wearing out well before the mileage they are supposed to get, and our heavy cars don't help that.
what size are you running? 225/60/18 or 235/55/18? both are common sizes for the factory 18's. _________________  2006 black /SRT//8/12.521 @ 112.263 MPH (corrected time) 2nd place SRT8 shootout Great Lakes Dragway 2008 / 2nd place Maywood Park AutoX 2009http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CjQeby5cB1Q / http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v0So5e-GGXM |

| OK so I took a trip to Tire Rack in South Bend, and I just picked up some Khumo Soluss'. They seem to be pretty good. Gripped well being new gonna have to see once really broken in. But for as cheap as they are Imma have to live with them for now. And that Tire Rack facility is awesome. Nice people too. |
