I will indeed open up the option of doing a small cruise on Saturday though....

Where do you guys buy tires? And anyone have any that they like? I want a quiet, more comfortable tire. All seasons are fine to. Looking for them for my 18" wheels.

I always go through tirerack with discount codes, or I purchase all of my Toyos through the Toyo distributor down in FL.

For my G, I don't think I'll go any other way then Toyos. Love the performance, and also love the shape of them(probably not something you're concerned about with your 18's).

those are good tires as well! i would go with the DWSs in that case. although, i will say they still aren't that great in the snow, even with AWD...for your sedan i would still recommend snow tires for the winter.

I'm getting my left rear tire inspected later today, I have a small leak but wanting to determine if it's a bead leak or something in the tire. Hoping I can hold off on getting new tires until later this fall or even next spring if I can help it! I will probably put the stock 18s back on so I don't have any flat spots on them again. I'm leaning towards the Pilot Super Sports. I just don't know if I'm going to like the V12s or not But we will see, it is a couple hundred between the difference of the V12s and the SS's in just the rears alone....

How's everyone been lately? Tix pre ordered for watching The Dark Knight Rises tomorrow at 8, anyone else planning to see it? I haven't been to a movie since the last time we all went to see the one in the cities

Just search google, you can find discount codes for pretty much anything

I wanna see it definitely, just probably not going to happen tomorrow night.

Sad to hear on the tires bud. The 18's are all in their bags and ready for you to rock 'em!
