It's about time to get new tires for the Integra (unless somebody wants to buy it.. hint hint..).
I DON'T need any type of performance tire; I want to just get by on them for daily driving. Any good cheapies out there that handle well in rain?
Or, is somebody selling a cheap set of wheels with decent tires which look better than the stock steelies with ugly hubcaps? :pukel:
No tire answer for you... but why in the hell did you ever buy that damned car back if all you want to do now is sell it? ::BaHump::Quote:

Try as I might, I can't find an RC version. Interesting... looks like I could do something nobody else has!Quote:

Screw all that. Kumho 768 from Discount. Put a set of 4 on the Civic last month for less than $200 mounted, balanced and taxed. *There may have been a mileage adjustment from the last set that only lasted 40k miles.
Remember kids... Go see Al Cavan or one of the other Discount Tire folks we recommend BY NAME. Otherwise, your experience will probably SUCK!

From speaking with him lately it sucks anyways. He would hardly do any adjustments even with the S2000 club discount, I now just order from edge or vulcan and have NTB mount/balance for 40 cash.Quote:

I agree about warehouse prices are pretty cheap, but you want to watch out for shoddy materials. Such as: When I went to Costco to have my new tires mounted they charged me $40. Several months later I went around a corner pretty quick and merged onto a highway. I noticed the wheel started pulling to the right and I got off at the next exit. Checking the tire, I didn't see anything amiss. The valve stem had split and was dumping air. I changed the tire and checked the other three. All of them had small splits on the valve stem.Quote:

Yes, these are cheap and will last a good while......if you have a good alignment, obviously.Quote:

Check out Sumitomo tires.. ran them on my old Civic and the wifes RSX. Great tire for the money.
AST's are even cheaper and drive great. They are H speed rated but my wife doesn't top 130mph very often so I felt fine putting a set on her car.Quote:
