*Need new tires for Shelby*
hey guys,
its that time to get some new rubbers.
I currently have
255/45/zr18 Nitto Extreme 555's on the front and
275/40/zr18 Nitto Extreme 555's on the rear.
question is, where is the best place to pick up an new set for cheap?
Where do u guys usually go to for tires?
Im thinking of sticking with these Nittos because ive had them for 2 years and i get pretty good traction and never a flat of problems.
My old GT had Pirelli's and I got 2 different flats and had to deal with plugs and replacements so I don't think im gona go for them again.
any way the best place i have found is DiscountTireDirect.com and the total would be $665.96 with shipping
(link) http://www.discounttiredirect.com/di...rt/showCart.do
and another site, TireBuyer.com wants $740.23.
Anyone use discounttire before? and if you guys know of any better deals its would be helpful

I've used discounttiredirect before, when they had the tires I was specifically looking for (that Tire Rack did not carry). I wouldn't hesitate to buy through them again.
Another supplier that I've used is vulcantire.com. Don't know if they carry Nittos, though.

I like dealing with Discount Tire because they have actual stores near me, and they will match any price you find on the Internet. I usually over the phone and have them shipped to my home to save the tax, then take them in for mounting and balancing.
