Buying: P225/50 R16 Tires

As the title says I'm buying P225/50 R16 Tires post a price, how much tread left, and how many you are selling.

If this helps this is my tire:

Re: Buying: P225/50 R16 Tires

I know this is off topic as i'm not selling my tires, but what ever you do, don't get Eagles. I had to replace mine within 43,000 km and were $219 per tire. Plus, everytime i was on the highway they would make a funny noise.

Re: Buying: P225/50 R16 Tires

Do you need an all season or do you have snow tires so you can get a pure summer tire? Either way I would recommend something from BFG.

Re: Buying: P225/50 R16 Tires

As I said tonight, I'm on the Traction T/A's. They don't squeel like the RS-A's I had before (stock tires) but they're great in the winter.

How much about for four tires. Also ones for all year around would be great.

Re: Buying: P225/50 R16 Tires

I got mine at Costco and I believe it was ~800. I believe that was with tax included.

The 215/50/R15's of the TA were 594 (was put on my mom's car)

Drastic improvement over the Eagles. Eagle LS = good for nothing. I have Traction T/As as well, paid about 850 for em installed, balanced, taxes, etc. from a local shop. What sucks is 3 months later I had a good offer on Mich X-Ices so if I knew that was coming I probably would have bought BFG KD-Ws

Re: Buying: P225/50 R16 Tires

If you really want to have fun, go buy yourself some Perelli's. Of course they will probably run you ~1000+... oh yeah you'd need winter tires if you get Perelli's.

BFG Radial T/A's - $87.99

If your planing on upgrading to bigger wheels then I wouldn't spend $150+ on a tire just yet. Those will get you around all year. :) Should run you about $450-$475 installed.
