ill check em out tonight then

google around for tires. i found places that sell some tires cheaper than tirerack w/ shipping.

Find a damn Sam's club...You can get a set on your car, and drive off for under $450. And that's for damn good tires too.

That's subjective lol

Not a bad wheel choice though.

Onlinetires.com worked for me. They got great prices.

i got the Goodyear Eagle GT's for 600$ im golden.

Only thing I will say...

Those Rims will look good on the car...But you cant have the red overlay on the GTP Side badges...it'll make it look really damn weird..

I thought this was part of owning chrome wheels, keeping them looking good. Unless your african american and drive a dirty 04 escalade with brake dust all over your 28 inch rims. And im half-black, i can say that :P

ya know, unique wheels direct runs out of orlando...jason helped me a ton and special ordered my wheels for me, and gave me 10% off my entire package. i was out the door at $1100. i'm running 18x7.5 with a 245/45/18 tire. LOVE my setup...

Unique Wheels Direct is the guy that sent Bio the wrong wheels and now won't reply to any of his attempts to contact them, right? I'd think twice about buying from him.

correct. i cant get ahold of him and ive tried multiple times.

yeah im happy with my new setup. the guy should email me about pricing tommorrow.
