Just thought I'd throw it out there for anyone looking some Max Performance Summer tires for our car... Tire Rack just did a significant price drop on the Continental Extreme Contact DW (a dry/wet tire... not for snow or very cold road temps). In 235/40-18 and 275/35-19, they're down to $101.25 each for the fronts and $144.45 each for the rears.
Thats $491.40 for the full set (plus shipping).
They cost me $552.04 shipped to N.Y. directly to the shop I use for mounting, balance and alignment.
(That tire
IS made in 285/35-19 for $9.00 more per tire, and 285/30-19 for $36.94 more per tire for those that really 'knead the meat', haha!!)
Even in bone stock size (225 and 255, those tires are only $507.80 for a full set, plus shipping).
Not a bad deal at all.
