I think you might save a little cash with Tirerack. They are cheaper on both of those tires with the replacement plan as well. I've gotten all my tires from them and they've been great to do business with for the most part. I had to have some Kumho 711s replaced and they were prompt and easy to deal with. Best of luck with your purchase though. Car looks good.

 

i dont know of any localy.

 

HEY I DID A LITTLE RESEARCH AND I FOUND THAT YOUR WHEELS LOOK A LOT LIKE THE ALT X-PHILE RIM...CHECK IT OUT AND TELL ME IF ITS RIGHT...

 

Cool.[8D] I have to mail order all my tires. Places here in town are a rip off and we don't have any discount distribution centers locally that I know of. It's cool you don't have to pay shipping, I would love to just go pick my tires up opposed to waiting for UPS. [:@]

 

ya defintaly hear ya thier... i hate waiting...

and luckely... my battery situation worked out so now my voltage is good and i get to put somemore money towards my tires... so AT LEAST ill be able to buy new tires for the front friday
so far thats my only rubbing location! so im considering just buying the fronts BUT still keeping the tires cause they are still good! just alittle rubbing areas... but hold air and have pleanty of tread left.... so this way if i do have a blow out ill have something to fall back on ASAP.
tho my only concern in balancing these tires... if i paid to have them balanced with my old tires on the rear would they charge me again when i get a new tire mounted for balancing?

ALSO.... what about my drums...... my drivers side has a chunk missing from it... do you think it would throw off my balance and vibrate preaty bad?
and if anyones bought new ones how much did they run ya a pair?

 

I doubt they would charge you to re-balance them. Most places will do that free of charge if you can show they balanced them recently. They actually shouldn't require re-balancing since balancing a tire/wheel is done aside from the car's condition but balanced according to the tire/wheel in and of itself. So having different sized tires on the rear wouldn't cause the fronts to go out of balance, however, if driven too long with mismatched tires, it may cause alignment issues or uneven wear.

I'm not sure if the hub damage you've shown would cause any issues. I can't imagine that it would espcially on the rear. I wouldn't worry about it unless I noticed any problems from it. Good luck.

 

Looks good. Just got rid of my mr7's which are similar. The chrome looks good with black. Hey its much better than stock

 

wheels look good dude i havn't bought new drums before i just get them at a junk yard they should go for $15.00 -$20.00 used

 

O MAN.... i got two new tires today to try and eleminate the rubber and bottoming out the tires on the fender...

well thiers good news and bad news...
good news is they dont rub with full turn LOCK TO LOCK.... and only lightly rubbed once with another hard dip.

and THE BAD..... dang these suckers look small!!!!!!
and now i definatly have to worry about curben the rims!!!!!!
and the SECOND BAD.... found out one of my front wheels is bent..... musta been a pot hole cause it was on the inside lip... BUT luckely the guy did a preaty good job balancing it and i havent felt it yet!
before i got the new tires it was a preaty bad shaking and pulled towards the left... now its preaty smooth and only SLIGHTLY pulls to the right now... but after i get the other two tires the next thing after that will be alignment.

anyone know ruff estimate how much a 4wheel alignment would cost me?

i have to do the rear tires in afew weeks.... to poor to buy all new rubber at once...






also gotta clean off some of the double sided tape that they didnt rubb off.. but thats not to big of a deal.... im just glad they did a great job balancing it!


only thing that sucks is im not sure if ill be able to drop the car with a static drop now i know i could still bag it but thats alota money thier.LOL i like how big the old tires were cause they filled the fender gap realy nice.... but also rubbed which wasnt worth it.LOL just not sure if i can drop it now..... guess ill just have to save up for the air struts for next year...
or unless my truck sells then ill be able to bag it.... but ive just been thinking weither or not im gonna sell my truck...

 

i like the underglow...seriously im not bein a jerk...i think its cool...first ive seen it out of the movies and u did a good job on it...
