Jamie, that sound like a great price for those tires mounted and balanced. I got the same tires from tirerack.com (shipping was sooo cheap because one of the locations is only 1 state away from me). But, I had to go to a shop to get them mounted and balanced. BTW I've had them on Sliver for about 2 months now and I love them! They are awesome in wet and dry condtions. I really haven't had a chance to try them in snow, but I will find out next winter.

thanks amy, i'm glad to hear that. i did a lot of research and it came down to those, kumho asx's and dunlop sp's. these got really good reviews and seem to be what i'm looking for overall. the goodyear dealer originally said they were something like $145/ea., then another employee came out and mentioned something about employee pricing. they busted out this huge list and the GT's were $119.99/ea. so after tax and mounting it's a little bit cheaper than buying from tirerack.com and paying for shipping and mounting/balancing. so i'm glad i got a good deal. plus this way i don't have to lug the tires from/to wherever myself.

thanks again for your input amy, i really appreciate it!!

We had a great time with Wayne and Lady T at the car show on saturday.

SOOOOOOO many nice cars/trucks to look at. And the best part, we hadn't seen the majority of them before. lol

I think we took 180 pics ourselves?

Wayne, nice shot of the Pace car. I guess no one likes the trunk lid cover?

RJ,
You want to part with the trunk lid, let me know!!!! Gotta have something made up. Maybe I'll have the girl with hoo__r's make something similar.

And again, thanks for coming up for the show. I hope you had as good a time as we did. One of the best shows I've ever been at, let alone been in. LadyT can't get over how the guy in the Vette next to her got P.O.'d over everyone walking by his car to look at Lucy!
