Default two completely unrelated items

first... anyone sell tires? my wheels (that are going on being 3 weeks late getting here) SHOULD be here soon but since the wife made me buy a mustang for 2grand i'm going to have to find a pretty ridiculously good deal on tires to actually roll 'em any time soon. i'll be running 18"x12" rears and 18"x10" fronts. last i checked i think i'm looking at about 2 large if i go with internet prices. anyone know a crakhead who trying to unload some tires? a mobster who needs a favor done? i ugly old rich lady that needs to get laid?

EDIT: looking for 295 35r18 for the rear and 255 40r18 for the front... that's as big as they go in the back without being specialty track tires... that i can find anyway. the yokohama advan sports are kinda what i'm looking at at the moment because discount tire actually sells those and the les schwab guys are douches here they wont even put my car on a lift neither will Firestone of sears (discount tire will)


second. I mentioned it at the waba meet and a couple people were "interested". I'm not sure how much of that was just tomfoolery, but are any of you interested in coming to a halloween party on Friday the 30th? i know none of you are lowlife scum or you'd be driving CRX's instead of z's so it's pretty much open door to you guys. i'm getting a keg or two but liquor will be BYOB. As i live in a true navy town, if you're a guy try to bring a hot single chick, or at least someone female who isn't looking to get into a fight for a guy saying "hi" to her, or else you'll negatively contribute to an already difficult male to female ratio problem.

yeah... its the right size but it's hard to find wide t1r's just laying around to match it as well... and see the edit to the original post.. les schwab is the only tire place i've found that sells toyos and the pretty much are worthless

check these tires out i know a lot of people on this forum love them, but as far as locals go, ace32x is the only one (that i can remember) who has them (or had...) great prices though. i right there with you, discount tire is the only place i'll go. i talked to the one in puyallup and they can order these for you np. they'll cost a little more than the website, understandably, but you'll get their warranty with them.

this'll help too

Tire Rack has a special right now on the size you want for the rear in the Goodyear F1 GS-D3.

I have bought a lot of tires from Tirerack and have them shipped to T&T Tire in Tacoma. They do a good job on mounting and balancing. I can't imagine you can't find a decent installer in Bremeton but if not Tacoma is only 45 minutes away.

I've got two 245/45/18 Bridgestone Potenzas with 70-80% tread on them. $60 for both if you want to come get them.

cause that's what my sponsor offered me? his reasoning was that you can't find tires any bigger than 295 without going into low mileage street slick type tires
