wow, what a new set of...

[horsepwr]

Tweetgood tires do for a vehicle. I just got a new set of tires put on the wife's car today, and what a world of difference it makes.

You know you have good tires 10-20k miles down the road though. And I learned, over the last few months, that you can't just let anybody mount and balance a set of tires. You want to make sure they have up-to-date, state of the art, fully digital balance equipment. They must have the computer balancing system that puts each tire "on the highway"....no wonder I couldn't get Big 10, and the 5 other big name tire places to get my shyt balanced right for any speed in the past. Those guy's excuse, 'some tires just won't alance out right.' bs

TweetI WILL WAIT TO GET NEW TIRES FOR MY TRUCK BECAUSE THERE GOING TO BE EXSPENSIVE

Tweetwell to a certain point they are right. I have been in the tire industry for 7 years and there are some tires that are going to suck but those are the really big huge off road tires. all other tires should be able to be balanced however sometimes if you have a bad rim it will still not drive perfect. we always check the rims and tires to make sure the problem is in the tires. But you are right that new equipement will really make a difference.

Tweeti need to rear tires bad, where did you get them done that you liked?
I live in FL so its been tropical storm crap all week and was trying to drive on the interstate and hydroplaned across 3 lanes the other day. Luckly I know how to fix a drifting problem, or in would have been me going 60 into a concrete divider.

TweetHey DS go price a set od Bridgestone Dueler Alenza's assuming you are wanting a street tire. they are on sale right now at every bridgestone dealer and should only run you 170-200 bucks a piece with a 65k warranty and some other great benifits.

I had them done at a dealership.

I'm in FL also, so that was one of the main reasons I went ahead and got a new set of tires on her car. because of how wet this season has been turning out to be. and the old ones were pretty much done. The ride quality was gone.

Just make sure they dont jack up your tire monitor - they did on my Suburban when I got new front tires - ran me $100 to fix it.

[horsepwr]

TweetPerellis are good tires in many classes. They always have great prices on them, on all tires really, where I've got my tires for the last 7-8yrs. discounttiredirect.com.
