Uh...FTW means For The Win.

Anyway, my stock tires had just a shade under 11k miles on them before one of them got punctured. I called my local dealership and was able to get a replacement mounted and balanced for roughly $280. Kinda pricey, but I don't have the fundage to get the full new set I want.

I still want the 18" Konig Crosshairs and BFG T/A KDWs that I've been eyeing for the past six months, but when you're saving up to move out, then you're gonna make do with what you can.

 

Excellent choice, really good to see people with their priorities are in order. That wheel & tire upgrade sure would be sweet, but moving out is even better.

 

You could've gotten 4 quality tires for $450 instead of spending $280 on 1 crud tire that is going to outlast the other 3....

 

If I'm going to get four new tires, they're going to come on four new wheels.

I don't know where everyone is driving nowadays, but the stock Yokos are PERFECT for how and where I drive (like a grandma, under 80MPH all the time).

It amazes me how hard people drive their cars to the point where the Yokohama tires are considered "crud". Potenzas, I understand; I have a friend with them on his tC and they're horrible in every sense of the word. Sure there are better tires out there (I drool at the idea of being able to drop $1600+ on the package I want, oh man those BFGs are sick!), but the stock Yokohamas are what I need. Not what I want.
