Great Tires for Cheap!!!
Okay, so I've been looking to get a set of "Hankook Ventus V12 evo K110s" for the SC and prices are all over the place, plus shipping sucks too.
I just found the place to purchase them. Right now on www.gripston.com you get a set of 245/40ZR18s for the SC for a total of $595.96 and free shipping. That's not all...from April 1st through June 30th if you buy a set you get $60.00 back in the form of a American Express prepaid Credit Card if you fill the rebate form out. All said and done...you're looking at $133.99 a tire shipped free to your home.
Now that's a great deal!!!

I'm not familiar with this site, and I just went there and it looks kind of strange to me. (I'm looking for Hankook tires too for my 2008 IS 350)
On Tirerack.cor for my car at least (http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires....0&autoModClar= ), I'd be looking at:

^ ah crap, blocked at work. I was hoping to order my tires in the next couple hours but now I'm curious to see what my price could be on gripston.com. Looks like I'm not ordering new tires until tonight

Thanks for looking into this for me. The $15.34 savings isn't too big a deal; however, I think there's some availability issues with one pair of of my tires from tirerack.com. That would result in me getting the tires later, or I would have to pay extra to have it shipped from a a warehouse further away. So if Griptson's got all 4 of them in stock and can ship today, I think I should just grab from them if the ship time isn't too long.
Do you have the link handy? I'm going to give it to my wife so she can order the tires for me since it's blocked at work.

How about this: YOKOHAMA AVS dB TIRE 245/40/R18
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...1421&viewitem=
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...1421&viewitem=
It also looks like the eBay sale is for just “one” tire, but what most concerns me is that TireRack and other tire retailers don't even recommend that tire for the SC?
Hope that helps?

I ordered my tires on the 27th...they shipped today the 28th. Estimated delivery is May 3rd. They will be traveling from TX to VT. I think that's pretty good for free shipping.
