Anything is only worth as much as someone's willing to pay for it. Why buy 452s if you hate them when you could have spent a little more to get what you wanted?

That's too bad.

I was happy buying Falken ST115 from Discount Tire. They even replaced a damaged tire no questions asked.

I thought you loved FK452's and you were sponsored?

I had one tire bubble and I'm tired of it already.

the car WAS and i ran out of all the tires. when i bought the car i had an amounted time to buy tires, so i bought 2 big batches and they have all been used. so i had to pay retail. nah i love the falken tires. they are perfect for the stretch and camber, but i just go through too many of them. i thought buying a different brand would be cheaper. but they werent, at least where i was shopping

i have a buddy thats affiliated with toyo and he sadi they'll hook me up, but i was lazy to drive down there.

so to summarize it i can get the toyo hookup but im lazy. when i do go up there i will probably buy at least 10 pairs.

how many miles does it take for you to wear out a set of rear tires?

you can get 19's in SD for about $100 each, i bought a set of 20's nankangs 225-35 & 245-35 for $430 no mount or balance. they sell wheels cheap at this one spot all day

Check!

So does this means I'm VIP, although I don't have a platform? :P
