Is this a good deal on tires?
 
I need replacement tires immediately. I can get the firestone wide ovals, all 4, balanced, mounted, and an alignment on the z all for $800 out the door. Warranty on the tires too. Would you take this deal?

Sounds like a very good deal to me, especially, if they in C5 Z06 sizes. You don't use or need run-flats on a Z. :yesnod:

Yup, that's a good deal. I paid about $50-$100 more to get the same setup on Z06 Rims for my coupe. Really happy with the tires. :cheers:

Did you put 265's or 275's on the front?

tire rack charges 154 x 2 = 308 + 202 x 2 = 404 total of 712 just in tires from tire rack + shipping which is probably 40.00 . Figure 750 in just tires. Vette alignments are usually $100+. Valve stems and balancing is usually 8-12 per tire. You are getting a really good deal. I would be real comfortable with that purchase!

I paid $835 for stock sizes, for a set of firestones, for my 02 Z, last march, mounted and balanced at firstone, and they gave me six months, same as cash no interst, so thats how long I took to pay them...

I did 265/40s on the front, 295/35s on the rear. $749 shipped, then I paid another $120 for mounting and balancing. No Alightment. :thumbs:

I got a similar deal last May. You will love the tires too.;)

Like the tires, only have maybe 500 miles on them, but now, I'm not too crazy about the wheels I picked.

More than likely, just put the stockers back on, and sell the wheels.

Has anyone of you who are running FWO's ever owned Michelin PS2's? Likes/dislikes between the two?

Edit - besides the price.
