Discount Tire
Saturday i went to Discount tire at Broadway and H in chula vista, and they quote me a set of 4 Dunlop SP Sport 9000 DSST Tires at $1200.00 Dollars..
they suggest the Pirelly Euphori R/F at $960.00 Dlls. still expensive.
any suggestion for cheap Run Flat tires?
Thanks .
Note: I have read most of the msg. they go more for the performance but for me, a personal point of view is 50 % performance and 50 % the look of the tire, per example have a better view the Dunlop than the pirelli , but i think have more weight the pirelli brand name. i think we have this cars to show the hummans ( w/out a mini) how beautifull are. hehehe .

ok good advice..
I am blank about the Run flat tires system, i really dont know if i can use a run-flat can, is this posible?
i really dont want to have a air compresor because the trunk is to small (have 6 disc box and wife you know bags, coats, and woman stuff) but the price of the run flats are convencin me to buy a normal tire, i really like the look of the Goodyear F1 DS-G3 is agresive.

for $20 at Sears and have also seen it at Pep Boys for the same price. It fits, in the hideaway storage bin the boot.

I assume you're looking at 17" tires, right? Tire Rack has the Dunlops for $235 each x 4 = $940. Discount Tire will match their price no questions asked. When they do, make sure they only charge you their regular $11 per tire install fee ($44). I think there are environmental and disposal fees of around $10 per tire ($40). That gets you up to $1024. Add tax and you're around $1103.
Voila - I just saved you $100!
Personally, I'm switching to non-run-flats when I get my new wheels, and putting the Continental Comfort Kit in the boot just in case. Search for it on tirerack.com.
Good luck!

Go non-runflat and improve your ride characteristics and handling 10 fold. Pick this up:

Mine fits inside the access panel on the left side of the boot. Voila', no loss of "cargo space
As far as tires, the Yokohama AVS ES 100 is a great tire for around $100 each. Other higher performance options include Goodyear F1 GSD3, Bridgestone SO3, Falken Azenis ST-615, Kumho Ecsta, Bridegstone KDW, the list goes on...
