Bridgestone Potenza S-03 Pole Position  
225/45/18 perfect; or 235/40/18

ok, the konig price you have is MSRP from 1010tires, so no real big deal there…  
Since it dosen’t look like you can get the Sport Max ne of wheels line I’ll stick to seeing what kind of rubber you can come up with

how about  
Yokohama AVS ES100 225/50/15 & Advan A032R in same size… thanks

Yea in some cases the discounts aren’t anything special, sometimes they’re great - it’s kind of hit or miss.

To be clear though, from 1010tires these same wheels are $169.99 + tax + shipping.

So your total cost from 1010tires for 4 wheels is $726.65

Total cost from me for 4 wheels is **$660**

still 10% savings, or about $66 dollars.

Ian, as for your tires sizes - neither are available at this time, sorry. It looks like as they run out of stock on summer sizes they do not re-stock them anymore and have been adding a lot of winter stock.

Assuming you are looking for Springtime tires - I will be running one before the season starts – if you are still looking for some tires or wheels then please feel free to ask for more quotes.

The price for the 16"x7" Drag DR-16 is  
**CAD $117 per wheel**

However, I’m not sure what bolt pattern you are looking for. 100x114.3 doesn’t make sense 🙂

Also, I need to know what kind of tire you want - summer, winter, all season? sizes; stretched, undersize, oversize? Make, model? etc.

dont have these, sorry dude

i just checked in to them at 1010tires, they have them here but its rediculously expensive. i’ve heard these are good tires but you can get some insane tires for this price that I’m sure these dont even compete with.  
They also only seem to come in two sizes and one of them is labeled “Nissan” ??

[http://www.1010tires.com/tire.asp?tirebrand=Bridgestone&tiremodel=Potenza+S-03+Pole+Position](http://www.1010tires.com/tire.asp?tirebrand=Bridgestone&tiremodel=Potenza+S-03+Pole+Position)

edit: after reading some of the reviews on 1010 tires, people seem to love these. i’d be curious to see how they stack up to their competition. it’s over $1200 for just 4 of those tires shipped to me from 1010tires. you can buy some serious business tires from the US for that kind of money - i dont even think my supplier carries anything even close to that expensive haha

Hah, I hate to say it but Z211 isn’t available unfortunately.

I’ve been bugging my rep to get some proper high performance tires but they are pretty limited.

From the top of my head they have certain sizes only in Advan Neova, they also have NT01 (great r-comp). some bfg drag radials, nitto 555r (or whatever they’re called) and I think thats about it unfortunately.

as far as hankook goes the best they have to my knowledge is z212 - in which case I would advice you go the rt615 route.

z211 is a bit hardcore, the hachi is a street car no?

might be a long shot but you could check the availability of bfgoodrich g-force sports (if you think those are decent enough)

they make a 225/50/15, it’s about 100 bucks US a tire, retail

Looks like your group buy was successful once again.

Any idea when you will be accepting orders & payments for Winter Tires?

I spoke to my supplier this morning about the next order - he recommended that I wait up to 30 days before I start doing winter tires because over the next 30 days they will be adding more and more inventory.

So, I’m personally ready to do it even as soon as next week but realistically we should wait about 1 month - I think we’ll still have a lot of time before snow so it shouldn’t really be an issue.

Does that work for everyone??
