So I'm due for a set of new tires. Just wondering what is a good shop to get some tires that won't break my wallet? I am running a set of staggered 18's. would 245/40/r18 and 275/35/r18 be a suitable set up to get?

^^ what he said. Make sure they ship it from Nevada so shipping costs are way lower.

I usually buy it from discount tire direct. They have competitive pricing and it is free shipping.

thanks for the info. is that size a good set up? Or are there other size tire setups I should use?

Wasup glen, I got my Sumitomo HTRZ IIs 245/40/18 and 285/35/18 at tirerack for around 500 bucks shipped to my door.

hey Albert. haha I was looking at the same exact tires you mentioned. Never tried Sumi. How is the handling and road noise on them? I usually stick with the kuhmo asx or spt.

Just find the lowest price around and bring it to the nearest Americas Tire and they will match or beat it. They will also match Tirerack with shipping included in the price.

mdenoga, thanks on the tip. didn't know americas tire did price matching.

They're pretty decent, good wet traction but not as sticky as the nt555 on dry. But for the price, you cant beat the performance/dollar ratio

auto innovations in milpitas. very good pricing amazing customer service. i've used them for all my sets of wheels for my last car. everything from stock steelies up to 15x13's. they will stretch the tires on for you too

I've gotten 2 sets of Tires already from Tire Outlet, their prices are as good or sometimes better than TireRack, once you include taxes, shipping. Plus you can get the tires either same day or within a day depending on the tires. Also they will do alignment for you. I'll be getting my 3rd set of tires from Tire Outlet in San Jose towards the end of the year. They also do my oil changes, brakes and have fixed my flat tires.
