sorry i thought it was funny. anyways i just some new tires(kumho 712 235x45-17). they are a lot quieter then my old nitto and seem to grip the ground a little better for hard take off's. I am sold on these tires. they were about $15 dollars cheaper then the nittos i had and every penny adds up when it is multiplied by 4. now i am waiting for my clear corners and brake pasd to come in the mail and it will be cruising time.

 

Why did you do the 712s instead of the new MX series?

 

because i got a pretty good deal on them. I bargened with discounttire and got them to drop the price of the tires by $10 a tire

 

kumho 712 235x45-17 are ok tires. it's not the best or it's not the worst. You got it cheap so I say it's a good deal.

 

Hom much did you pay?

 

i got the tires mounted and everything for $450..that is with tax included and mounting. i was going to get the falken st115 but he said they would drop the price on tehre kumho so i said OK.

 

Did you replace a set of Nitto 450's?

 

no...nitto 555's

 

I don't think the MX would be for everyone.... It's got a shorter treadlife and only 9/32 instead of 10/32 (though I don't know if that is factored in). It's also noticably more expensive than the 712. Not a lot, but enough that it makes a difference.
