Default Need some assistance!

All,

OK.. I need new rears in order to pass inspection... I'm looking for:

275/35/19 ~or~ 275/30/19 ~or~ 295/35/19

3 stipulations:

1: Must be New

2: Must be local

3: Must be VERY inexpensive.

I'm in a money pinch since I spend too much on my repairs. I don't care if they are off brand...

Nowell: What was the brand you have / had on your Z?

Juan.. what was the brand that you had at the shop (Damn i really shoulda taken those!)

Hey Mike, you're welcome to borrow my rims and tires to get through inspection. My stock set has DR's on them, but I can drive on them while you get your car passed.

Thanks guys! I too have my stockers.. which have 90% tread left.. I'm trying to avoid having to do any kind of swap. I have the wheels off my car right now.. so .. it is a good time as any to go ahead and replace these.

I found this deal online:

275/30ZR19 XL Kumho Ecsta SPT
Blackwall In Stock 2 $169.00 $338.00

UPS GROUND 1 Business Day $19.11

Grand Total: $357.11

Any opinions on these tires? Good / bad ?

Price is NICE.

Normally I would have no gripes with that...BUT I have specifically used THIS seller several times and he has always come thru very fast, great communication, and product was perfect.

Do what you do man...but this guy is good...and the price is phenomenal
