since toyo tires are so freaken expensive
would it be fine to drive around with 2 new tires in the rear
and 2 used tires in the front with about 30-40 percent tread left?

 

yes

 

yes

I disagree. In a Camry or an Accord, Yep. In a sports car, No, IMO. Our cars use high performance tires, and the tread compounds, tread pattern, sidewall flex, any number of things may not be compatible. I say change all four.

if ur in a bind for cash, then its ok to get only 2 tires. but id recommend you change ur fronts when you have the cash, as winter is coming.

 

if toyos are expensive, get something else...like falkens.

 

I believe he already has Toyos on his vehicle that need to be replaced. He's just talking about replacing 2 instead of 4, for now, since he can't dish out the money for all four. In this case, the 2 old tires with 30-40% left will work until he can save money to buy new ones.

 

yes vo78 is right
i also had one more question (sorry about my noob questions)
one of the new rear tire is 100Y
i am guessing i should buy the other rear tire with 100Y and not 96Y
correct?
because i can get a discount on 96Y

 

Your kidding - Right Right

That number is the load range, the "Y" is the speed rating. I don't know what size tire you're talking about, but the load range is a function of the air chamber (the tire/wheel combo is the air chamber) and the maximum air pressure the tire will hold. YES - Stay with the same load rating (match the tires on each axle). You have a sports car for gosh sakes, cutting corners on tires is not the right thing to do. This is your life here.

yea forget that question because i just bought the same tire
