Looks like im tire shopping

[Metroyed]

Well it finally happened, i experienced a flat tire on my J today and now i realize that im forced to replace my tires. I was wondering what sort of tires i should look at since i plan on spending 300-350 on new tires. any info would be great. thanks

4 tires? What size (15, 16, 17)? Driving conditions, does your part of WA state get much snow? Might be better to post in the Tire section, so Grant@Tirerack can see.

[Metroyed]

lol wow i gave very little info, sorry. And now i noticed a big giant highlighted RED section about tires, yet i still go to Infiniti (sorry force of habit). The tires are 15. and are 215/60, despite wanting bigger rims im just gonna go economical and keep my stock 15 inch size. driving conditions arn't too bad where i live, never too hot and never too cold. However we do get the occational slushy or icy roads.

[Metroyed]

BTW thanks for the quick reply

You are in Puyallup?

What brand are you using now?

$350 is a good start!!

[Metroyed]

right now im using Toyo's. I want Yokos. Holy crap you live in puyallup too, where do you recommend i go?

[lessthanjakejohn]

Les Schawb.... He works there.

[Metroyed]

lol alright i guess i plan on going there then

[SmithSR]

Shameless plug from lessthanjake...

If you must have the Yokohama tire, get in touch with Grant at TireRack, so NICO's sponsor gets his money's worth.

[Metroyed]

i'd rather just take it somwhere and get it done, rather than have to wait for delivery.

[Metroyed]

BTW if i DID do delivery, i'd defenetly go through tirerack.

[lessthanjakejohn]

How do prices compare Les Schwab vs TireRack + Shipping

Where does les schwab get there tires? (directly from manufacturer or from tirerack also)

[Metroyed]

im not sure on Les Schwab's prices, im planning on going and getting a quote tomorrow regardless

[lessthanjakejohn]

heh, that was for smithsr

Ah, Western Washington... gotta love the 25 degree difference between winter and summer!

(I used to be up in Mount Vernon, so it was about the same)

[Metroyed]

lol alrighty, i was a little nervous about not knowing the prices right off hand.

Mount Vernon's beautiful, i love that town.

Metroyed, go see Phil - He'll get you taken care of.

Smitty, get that man a set of 235/55's, STAT!

[SmithSR]

LS doesn't stock Yokohama. They'd have to be ordered direct, then you'd foot the bill for shipping, balance, installation, etc.

Metroyed, I'll email you off board with some more info, but seriously, it'll cost more if you want Les Schwab to get the Yokos for you.
