Good Tires?!

Need suggestions! 225-55-R16 I have 550 to spend please answer quickly

FastStang91Lx · March 1st, 2011, 08:05 AM

Why so quick for an answer? Does the money disappear if not used in 24 hours? LOL. Do a bunch of research on Discount Tire Direct. Lots of reviews to read there.

thats a lot of money to spend on tires. with that much you can get some good rims and good tires on craigslist and still save money

This forum hijacks certain URL's that users post and directs them to the parent company of this forum which is autoguide.com. Looks like you tried to post a link to Tirerack but when clicked on, it takes you to autoguide.com and the redirect did not work, maybe it's just my browser (Firefox on Ubuntu with ABP and No-Script plug-ins) or Tirerack must not have paid any placement money here

I wanted an answer before I left for school haha but It's all good I was thinking the continentals.

Digsj7 · March 1st, 2011, 07:54 PM

Continentals??? Keep searching

StangBanger302 · March 1st, 2011, 08:15 PM

Continental DWS I got a set of 4 with insurance for 505$. Granted, my Dad works at a tire shop so he got a little bit of a deal, but they're definitely good tires.

I don't know if you've ever drove a car with good Continentals, but they're good tires. You can't just get any one though. The DWS is good for an all season tire, and the contsportcontact 3 is an AWESOME summer tire.

If your dad works at a tire shop, why did you get insurance? Can't he fix leaks?

Digsj7 · March 1st, 2011, 10:52 PM

When I hear continentals...I think buick regal or lincoln town car.

nolife · March 1st, 2011, 11:08 PM

I have General Exclaim UHP on the 02 GT. Great tire for the price, I think the 245/17's were only $85 at Tirerack at the time.

93hatch · March 1st, 2011, 11:17 PM

I have some knockoff capitals, always ran knock off tires. I aint driving like an idiot on the street expensive tires are a waste of money

91Mustang GT · March 2nd, 2011, 04:14 PM

Totally agree. The tires I run are 68 bucks apiece. No regrets if I decide to do a burnout or 10.
