Hey lunar, if you want some Kumho Ecsta Supra 712's in stock size Z-rated, I know a place that can do em for 370 installed cash out the door for all four.

Damn it, you guys are all the way down in SoCal. How about shipping that deal to me up here in the Bay.

Hehe sorry, that deal comes with them mounted and balanced. And if you don't want Z-rated, the V-rated are 350 mounted and balanced.

Thats a pretty good deal. Too bad I can't drive all the way down there. Well I could but not just for tires.

hey marcus, those are stock tires for me, 205 55r16
I just need the two back tires, they are worn to nothing.
can you just get the two back for a good price or is it a 4 tire deal
let this be a lesson to all check your alignment and tire wear
I am just looking for some stock tires the size above for all those who got rims, and don't need those tires anymore

haha go to an america's tire or any tire place and look for used tires. Haha America's Tire definition of used tires is nearly used haha. Got 2 Dunlop W10s for like 100 bux :)

Hmm I think 2 tires should be half the price, so if you got V-rated 205/55/16 then it should be about 175 mounted and balanced. Probably at most 190 if they wanted to charge more because you only bought two. Some places charge a lot for mounting and balancing, so check it out. I would stick to new tires if you could just because I always like new things personally, and don't know if a used tire has been repaired before or if anything was wrong with it etc (like firestones for suv's).

Discount Tire in El Monte, talk to Vick. Tell him that your friend sent you, and that he gave me tires for 370 installed for the Kumho Ecsta Supra 712 in 205/55/ZR16. Those were the Z-speed, and if you want, the V-speed is like 5 bucks cheaper for each tire I think. Also, if you want a lifetime alignment, they have it for $110, every 3k miles. The store is on Valley Mall, try looking it up on Yahoo Yellow Pages...

kumho's suck. they're cheaply made in korea. never buy them. same for toyo and sumitomo

Ummm if you look up user reviews, Kumhos have REALLY high ratings. They are better than Nittos. Check out http://www.tirerack.com for some reviews. A lot of people on this board use them including myself, and love them. They are just as good as Dunlop SP8000's which I used to have (but Kumhos also last longer). Just because they are made in Korea doesn't mean they suck. And Toyo is a very good racing tire too - The Toyo TS/1 is used by a lot of guys from socal dsm and they all love it because it's a very aggressive street tire.
