Needed tires-couldn't resist PZero Nero

I searched and searched, did a little research. But I couldn't resist the PZero Nero for 1/3 off Tire Rack's price. Settled for stock Type-S size, I thought I wanted to go 245s, but I'll get over it. 235/45/17 for $117 shipped. Hope I'm satisfied.

They are good tires at a great price, but see $167 each as the price on the Rack?

You're right, but I didn't get them from Tire Rack.

I would certainly believe that it's legit as the seller has a 99.9% positive feedback on 4,625 transactions.
I've purchased many tires from sellers on eBay, never had a problem.

got them last night. next day shipping from Philly to CT. look great, now waiting for pot-hole season to end before I have them installed.

Anyone go out of there way to have their new tires Hunter Road Force Balanced? Just wonder if its really worth it.

I did after many, many tries on a "regular" balancer, used a road force machine, but used the lug adapter rather than the cone. It's been 3 years and not a problem at any speed. My problem was that when the wheels were chromed, the center hole was compromised and therefore not centered to make it a short story.

If you need to locateone, hope the link still works:

Sent via e mail and it's not sent to all eBay users. I received one, 10% off $100 max, a few weeks ago.

finally had them installed, I wanted to wait for pot-hole season to end. Forgotten how quiet this car used to be. The stock Mich's lasted 53k miles (not really though, I used snows for two winter seasons).

Tires, delivery, lifetime balancing, and 6mos warranty on the alignment $646.

Hope to get another 53k out of these.
