Is anyone going to do a group buy with Wheels Direct on R-Compounds or Summer tires this season? ---

well… i ran through 6 tires in 3 months… i am not going to spend $$$ on tires for the back expecially… wha ti am thinking of doing is setting up a club offer with a local tire recycler… they were giving me any tire for $50 wit half tread or so… they had a HUGE selection of every size imaginable… i got 245 / 45 / ZR16 goodyear Eagle RSA’s for $100 a pair… i mean considering how fast some of us use tires this seems like a better option… i will appraoch them in the spring… maybe $30 a tire for members or something… just dont mount your tires there on nice wheels… if i hadnt hung around, he was going to try and pop off the centre cap of my Impuls with a screw driver… holy FUK… ---

I would like a pair of 245/50/16 for the rear. Something that I can use for the track for this season. I have 205/55/16 Yokos up front that are in good shape. What’s a good tire in the size 245/50/16, that is in the $150-180CAD range? I had Kumho 712 on my Enkeis last season and I think they were great. They were amazing in the rain, and they were pretty good (but not great) in the dry. I would like something other then Kumho this time; preferally Azenis or something else. The compounds I will consider for next year. EDIT: I got my Enkei rims from Tire World in Brampton, and I did go to Wheels Direct but Wheels Direct quoted me way higher on the Enkeis then Tire World; so at first, I’m gonna approach Tire World on my choice of tires and see if Wheels Direct can beat them. Tire World is like 10min and they had good service. ---
