ALRIGHT!

Just added everything together and it comes out to $1151.48! I have $1170 saved up!

Couple more questions before I purchase these!

Will I need an alignment? Note: I will not be using these during winter so they will be getting switched off.
How much will the speedo be off?
Are these good tires?
Here is the list of tires, what would you recommend? ALL I WANT IS TREADLIFE! I dont race so grip isnt a big deal to me.

I just wanna get some more input on the tire selection

I am guessing the 400 means a long life tread?

 

I like the wheels you went with they are hot... As for tires, the ones you chose look ok. However for the same price you could get some Falken FK-452s which are arguably the best tires out there for the money right now. I have them on both my cars and love them. You can find them on ebay for around $140 a tire in the 215/40/18. Thats where i got mine from just because it was the cheapest place

 

Thanks man! I am liking them more and more!

Do the Falkens have along life span? And I would have to pay to get them mounted

On the tire list, are there any others that would have a good life? I simply want the tire w/ the best tread life.

 

idk

 

Its all up to you but IMO you shouldnt be worrying about treadwear as much as you should performance, road noise, comfort, grip, and quality. And the Falkens are definately quiet and absorb small bumps/pot holes/etc very well. I would guess the Falkens are good for 25,000 miles at most but still, thats pretty good. That is a guess though. And you said you wont be running them in the winter so it should be a loooong time before you have to worry about replacing them.

Why dont you call around and ask dealers what tire has the longest tread life in a 215/40/18???

 

Thanks J_man!
Ride quality and noise really arent all that important to me.

I think now I am going to call a few places tomorrow, and if I cant find anything better ill just go ahead w/ the Yokohamas. Bah, I hope I get my wheels by Friday!

 

Just ordered them.....CANT WAIT!

 

OT

why the second account 19accord97?
