Tires

I need some new tires. For my car. Its an SVX.

1st) Is anybody selling a good set of tires? maybe you bought some that turned out just weren't for you or maybe your SVX is dead but the tires are still okay. Send me a PM.

2nd) If I'm going to go buy some, what kind should I get? I don't do any racing and I live on the east coast where it gets wet and snowy in the winter.

Re: Tires

I buy all of my tires on ebay. Be careful and look hard. There are great deals.

Yeah discount tires seems to have good prices and selection. About 1/3 cheaper than the stores around me, and free shipping.

Re: Tires

I got a set of Hankook Ventus last fall. They were a little less than $100 each and for that price I have been quite happy with them. I just do normal driving so I don't need anything too special.
