Help with Pricing of tires.

[CWright]

I know a lot of people have different opinion on different tires out here. I personally like the OEM tires. I have researched out prices on these and Tire Rack seems to have the best price. 129.00 for each front and 149.00 for the rears. Does anyone out know of a better price on the OEM BF Goodrich tires? With shipping(56.90) State waste tire fee(4.00) tax(42.90) and price of tires(556.00) Total shipped to my house is 659.80. It will cost $40 to mount and balance. So I will have 699.80 in the set. If you know of a better price for these tires I would appreciate any info. Thanks

Certain times of the year you can find them for less than $100.00 bucks.
I have seen them in the $80.00 range.

Wow!! That's cheap. Thanks. I want to order and put up in case availability runs low. Now being S/C I think my tires may last a short while longer. Does the camaro now come with our tires?

I am in need of tires and have held off because of how much they go for WHEN they are available to buy. Might as well buy a set of wheels and tires for a little bit more.

Those tires won't last long at all on a S/C marauder. :burnout:
I'm shocked you still want these. I'm running eagle F1 GS-D3's on the street and have a set of widened wheels I drag race with.

How many miles have you gotten out of the eagle tires? I have not been a fan of Good year. Every good year I have had on a vehicle ends up only lasting me a year. But if the bf's last just as long then I may switch over depending on price. Do the good years ride any better? And how do they do in cornering. Does the car shift or feel loose? Thanks

No, it's not the same tire, even more crappy than the MM OEM from what I hear.

+1 to what DOOM said, between the centers wearing out super fast and all the availability issues I got tired of messing with BFGs.

I have noticed that about availability. My rears are still ok with 13k miles on them. About 50% tread life still left. I just noticed the insides of the fronts are worn pretty bad, even, but bad. I had it aligned last time too. I guess the toe in is off. But isn't there a part to remove to adjust that. "flag" or something?

Yeah, that's been an issue for some owners. Mine had carfixer's alignment done before I bought it, so can't say definitively if was an issue with mine.

FWIW, I've gotten decent mileage out of the OEM fronts, it's just the rear tires that have performed so poorly.

Fronts sometimes dip below $100; but I don't think that I have ever seen the rear tires under $100. I have alway paid in the $129 and up range for BFG OEM rears.
