If you say GT-C's then yes that is WAY TOO MUCH!!!!! Unless they come with rubber and center caps...oh and lugs.

I think he said "3200 all together" (meaning tires and wheels)......if this is the case, YES that is a great deal (if you are referring to the GT-C)

Default Volk's and Toyo tires

I have ordered a set of Silver Volk GTC's 8.5"x19" for the front and 9.5"x19" for the rear along with Toyo Proxes T1S tires in 245/40/19 (front) & 275/35/19 (rear) with lugs for a total of $3456. That total amount includes - rims, tires, lugs, mounting, installation and tax. I couldn't find a better deal. Good luck!!!!!

about 2 seconds before you order or right after when you can still cancel, Id reccomend posting up your supplier, and let some people comment, you may very well have a great deal going on, or you may be buying from a company you dont want to be involved with...

of course I wouldnt just post it now and wait a week, so no one steals all the tires before you can order.

unless your sure this is a reputable supplier, then go right on ahead, sounds like a great deal to me. you can always spend 100$ alone just to get a set of tires mounted, so having them come premounted is always a bargain.

Whoops. I was talking and typing and missed that. Yes very good deal. I also agree with area...wouldn't hurt to get a second opinion on a supplier.

3200 is a pretty good deal...i paid 3065 for my gt-c's with toyos, but my rears are 275's, not 295's...so i suppose 3200 is about right.

sorry for leaving some info out they are the te-37 in bronze. actually are 8.5 in front 9.5 in rear. 3200 is rims and tires and i believe they are the sc1's( the softer of the two). i actually am having second thoughts though now. i really like the ggames by rays. same cost but i love the white gunmetal with the crome lip. what do you guys think

theres no way you can run 295/35s safely on 9.5" rims! tire rack recommends 11" wheels for that size, even if you could fit them on I wouldnt want to be in the car with you when you put any load on the sidewalls also, I still cant find anywhere thats list any toyos in that size? are you sure this deals legit??

okay i will try to get it right this time in reference to the ggames, the te-37 are out. i spoke to jason at discount tire direct. whether his info is accurate or not i do not know but he did say he spoke with someone that knows from exp there will be no rubbing issues with this combo with the correct offsets. the rim is a 8 in the front and a 10 in the rear. i was told toyo so i would assume he is correct. hope this clears up any confusion.

I guess their brand new since they arent listed on the toyo site. there have bee 295s on the back of a couple Zs now with no probs so it seems like it would be fine(even 275s on the fronts ) let us know how it goes
