Default tires

My tires are just starting to show wear. What tires are best to replace with? I was happy with the Michelin, but $1600 is a pretty heavy price.

Try tires.com. They carry the Michelins and will deliver them to you. I think it's about $1200.

I have almost 30,000 miles on my PS2s. I just ordered new wheels for my car, but they'll take 4-6 weeks to make, so I need to pick some new tires in that time. I want to get narrower tires to get a more "stretched" look like this Kleeman SL55 has...



Here are the wheels I ordered 20x9 in the back and 19x8 in the front.

Those are really cool wheels! Only negative for me would be the recessed lugnuts. I hate that for cleaning. That's what I like about the crossfire wheels. They have that hubcap over the lugs.

I'm sure you're just joking Dan, but some people would take offense to this...

I know you were kidding, but others seeing it might not have known that.
