My Yokes (pictured above) only cost $325!   :dunno:

are they 245/50 ZR16s or 245/50 R 16s?   because if they have an "R" in the sequence instead of "ZR" then they are not high performance tires, they are just good for everyday driving and longevity.

$100 a tire is what I paid too and its $25 a tire for mount and balance. basically $500.

Invasion, that would be a good deal on some 17s IF they were Z rated. same as I paid but bigger rim size... those always cost more.
My Yokes are VR rated.

i really don't care much about speed rating.  i'm not going to be driving 100+ mph anyway and it's not like i autocross the car.  H-rated is fine with me.

my first set of kellys were W rated.  :icon_wink:  those are the ones I smoked a Camaro doing 100+mph, then went around this curve.  when I look back I was hell stupid for goin that fast. I remember thinking the tires saved my ass. the curve wasnt that sharp at the speed limit but doin a buck it comes up a lot faster.  :laugh: 


turbosedan, you are totally right.

I actually paid 12.50 a tire and like $109 *goes and checks*

and $2 disposal fee/tire $494.88 total.   $436.88 for just the tires. they are "W" rated  with treadware rating of 420 :laugh:
