Default Cheap Tires?

Hi, I just bought an 07 touring. The tires are more or less bald. I'm looking to get some new wheels though, but wanted to take some time looking for them, so I need some cheap replacement tires in the meantime. I'm going to have to buy new tires when I get my new wheels since I'm probably going to do a staggered 18 19. So what tires can you guys recommend that are dirt cheap to last me 6 months or so until I get my new wheels? And where do you reccommend I get them. Thanks!

Call a few tire shops and ask if they have any used ones available in the sizes you need.

Whats wrong with having a cheap set for a couple of months? OP clearly stated that they are temporary until he figures out what wheels hes going to run.

Anything cheap from a local tire shop will do, just don't expect them to perform at all.

You can get used performance tires if money is really tight. Depends on your budget for tires.

This place ha s a good selection of used performance tires.

It takes you 6 months to decide which wheels to buy?

First of all, I'm really "disappoint" with your spelling. Second of all, for a friendly 350z site, there sure are a lot of irrational ****** on here that actually devote their time to misinterpreting OP's comments and berating him needlessly simply because they aren't capable of comprehending a post.

I genuinely hope those of you who fall into this category aren't contributing to the "why 17 year olds are too immature to own a Z" thread.

For those who actually read and comprehended my post, thank you for the replies. Greatly appreciated.

Hi, grow some thicker skin. you will get both sarcastic remarks as well as helpful info on any post you make. Take the good in with the bad, and laugh off the sarcasm.

Might as well delete your account if you can't handle the mild sarcasm you are seeing here.

What size tires do you need? I have a bunch that I've collected. 245/35/19 Nexen 3000 for cheap, 255/35/18 BS RE050A for cheap, etc.
