Adam called it.


Specifications:
Treadwear: 280
Traction: AA
Temperature: A
Speed Rating: ZR

Here is a link to the the Manufacturer: Link

Here is a link to the wonderful place I purchased them from: Link

Or you can do as I mentioned above.
"Call:800-385-3322
use ext 1854 (Danny)
Tell him that Matt in Oklahoma sent you."



As an after thought:
I think that some of you turbo guys need to run these: Link

Not too bad at $113.00 each. LINK

Hey Clint,
Discounttiredirect does not charge a shipping fee. Hmmm
If they try to charge you anything, reach into you pocket and pull out the military card. Say hey BITCHES I am stationed over here, so you may enjoy those Krispy Kreams in piece. The least you can do is help an Army guy out. Heck it is a thought.

Re: Alpha's ES2 lots of pix. I can't wait to get mounted. post 70

They do if you want them shipped any other method than UPS Ground. Several of us have gone round and round with them in the past. I don't mind paying $100 for shipping on tires when I order them on a Tuesday and they're in my hand on Friday.

Interesting tires though. I'll be curious to watch the reviews on them. My Sumis are a sticky 220 treadwear, and I still can't get traction unless I'm pointed perfectly straight on dry pavement!

I like everything except the hood, its not my taste. Nice tires too, but the wheel and tire combo would be too low pro. for me. Good luck with the drop it will look pretty good.

Re: Alpha's ES2 lots of pix. I can't wait to get mounted. post 70

Thanks for the support Adam.

Well the tires are mounted and on the car.

The car has 14 lugs.
That is right the stupid ass no good mother mmmmm. Broke off 2 of the studs, yes 2 and on the same wheel and not across but next to each other. They are also on the front. Could it get any worse? So I go back tomorrow so they can try and fix the studs. I don't think they can, it is just a local shop with limited tools. I will probably end up going to Honda and paying somewhere around 300 for freakin studs and a bearing replacement....

I just love my car.

W00T! 2600th post right here baby.... lol

Re: Alpha's ES2 lots of pix. I can't wait to get mounted. post 70

What??! No dude, studs aren't hard to replace and any local mechanic shop can do it for a 1/2 hour's worth of labor plus two $3 studs. Don't go to Honda, just call around to the local yokels first.

Re: Alpha's ES2 lots of pix. I can't wait to get mounted. post 70

Aren't they? I guess I'm coming from a position of ignorance then. Thought you could just drive them out and put new ones as they sit, without jerking the bearing. My bad, nice catch Adam.

Matt, is the shop that broke them, paying for them to get fixed?

You can not read! I am not running the 40 series tires, I am running 45's.

Go back and read. The current size is 225x45x17, the tires are the Nitto Neo Gen. Yes I am an ass.

I love Nitto's I have them in 40 series and I can't use them for fear of cracking a rim might have to check out the 225/45/17's when I get new tires.. They don't rub do they?

weren't you gonna lower your car too?
