On Saturday, I ordered new wheels for the Z.
On Sunday, I ordered new tires for those new wheels from TireRack.

They came in today... Talk about fasst shipping...
 
Cool... <blatant plug> and if anyone wants to order via the link at the top of the page we'd very much appreciate it... every little helps</blatant plug> ;)
 
There service is excellent and shipping is often just 1 or 2 days.
So....what did you get??
 
I did use the link at the top...... :thumbsup:

Since I do drive mine in the cold, but not on Snow, I was going to get the Kumho Ecsta ASX. http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp ... =Ecsta+ASX

I had looked at the General UHP's but discounted them....

But Rick's comments made me reevaluate my thought process and after another two weeks of research, I bought the UHP's.

Now, sitting in my garage, I REALLY like the look of them.
 
You will naturally post up pictures when you get them installed and let us know how you like them.... :thumbsup:

Just kidding. Enjoy them!
 
Always good to hear about great service. I have to say US companies impress me a lot more than the excuses we get here in the UK. For example, I order a lot of my DVDs from HiDefDVD.com in the US (since HD-DVDs and Blu-Rays are about 50-60% of the price than they are over here!) and I can place an order on a Thursday evening and have the DVDs arrive at my house on the Monday morning. It astounds me how quick they turn up, when it takes most UK DVD mail/internet order companies nearly a week to do the same!

Back on the subject of tyres though, since Tirerack don't deal in the UK, I hope it's ok to post this up. I recently found an excellent source for Michelin PS2 tyres in the UK. Best price I've found anywhere so far - here (Top Tread Tyres). The price is obviously delivered only, but most fitters will charge about £10 a wheel to fit, valve and balance.
 
I did look at the PS2's but at $200+ a tire they cost as much as the tires I put on my truck and those last about three years or so.

Plus at $83.00 a tire for the UHP's, they are CHEAP.. almost throwaways....

I really wanted to get the 235/40 R18's but I am not sure of the fitment. I will be able to tell better once I get the new 225/40's installed. Maybe next time...for the 235's

I also found a local tire place that has a Hunter 9712 roadforce balancer that only charges $13.00 a tire for mounting/balancing...including weights....
 
X2 on the Generals. I figure that if they really ended up sucking, then I wouldn't feel guilty replacing them (since they're so inexpensive).

So... what wheels did you end up getting?
 
You will find out when I post the pictures... :evil:

Bought them from a little old lady from San Monica.. who only drove them on Sundays..... :rofl:
