Default Tires in ATL

Hey folks, if you're in the NE Atlanta area and looking for tires, go see the boys at Kauffman Tire in Lawrenceville. Specifically ask for Robert and Tu. I pulled the Z06 out of the garage Friday afternoon and noticed the cords were hanging out...uh oh time for new shoes. Called them up and they had the tires in this AM. Allowed me to spend the entire time with the car including pulling it up on the rack and all that. Nice bunch of guys. The prices were OK, 315 for the fronts and 399 for the rears out the door. Like I said the best part is they handled the car and wheels gently, the entire shop came over for compliments, and even the customers started walking in the shop.

Next time go to Dicount Tire in Kennessaw, see David. They do excellent work for a fair bit less than you paid :)

:iagree:

Just got my appointment set up with Discount Tire for Friday of this week. I spoke with Sam because David wasn't available. :D :D

He gave me the same deal that Teddy got. Pretty good price for the Kumho's which everyone seems to be pretty pleased with. :cheers: :cheers:

The prices were OK, 315 for the fronts and 399 for the rears out the door.
I hope that was the price for both fronts and both rears. :eek:

If so sign me up. ;)

All the guys with the kuhmos MXs seem to be very happy with them.

What brand and sizes did you get, and how much was it out the door?

Sam's one of the assistant managers. He used to work at the Discount Tires near my place. I'm glad he gave you the same deal as me. :cheers:

The Kuhmo's kick butt. :thumbs:

That's way too cheap for 4 tires. That must be per tire, if so you got Raped!
