Title: Need tire(s) for the TGP - Who sells them for the lowest?
Post by: mongoose on January 23, 2003, 08:08:52 AM
Went through a construction zone and blew out the pass. rear. The rears are(were?) only at 35-40% wear too -suck-o-rama!
Anyway, I know someone found them online for ~$140 a piece, anybody remember where that was?

LMK where you get yours
TIA

Tirerack.com , Kumho Ecsta 711 's, $55 ea. no tax, only shipping.  I just bought 2 and they arrived yesterday.  They are unidirectional, have v- good ratings, and are HR rated up to about 130 mph, which is about what these cars top out at stock.  I have been to 122 mph once and probably never will again anyways.

Don't the specs for the TGP specify Y or Z rated tires?

Anyhoo -  thanks for the site! I found some 245/50ZR16 's for $118 a piece which is a good price :D

www.discounttiredirect.com has better prices and shipping is free.  You can get some 245-16-50 Kumho's ZR rated for $97ea.  I drive fast and hard so I didn't sacrifice $$$ for performance.  I got the Hankook Ventus 235-45-17's $99ea no shipping.  Grip is phenominal! :shock:
