I can get the rims and tires mounted and balanced for nada. I can also get you PS2's for less than that, but for a short time while I still work where I do. I'll have to check for it. Honestly, Id take 265 35 r 18's in Neovas over that, and if you are rolling the fenders, no reason not to! Bu if you have tires already, the PS2's Ive used, and they're the best for every day street driving.

Cool. I hope it all works out....just the same, I couldve done pretty good on the pricing with them. If you ever need anything, PM me as Im not allowed to discuss it on the boards. Best of luck, PICS PICS PICS!
BTW with the PS2's, make sure you break them in well and its good to use as low a sidewall with them as possible, as they're soft on the side.

$288 a tire?! Holy crap man! I mounted up KDW 2's 245/35/18 and they fit perfect. Rim is the RGII 18x9. Tires went for like $170 mounted & balanced. And I didn't have to roll the fenders.

KDW 2's are great tires especially considering the price. However, comparing them to the PS2 is unfair to the KDW. For the money, they are a great, long lasting street tire with plenty of grip, but when compared to the likes of the Neova or the PS2, they just dont hold up. Personal experience. Just the same, if you change your mind in the future, the KD's go for about 200 a piece. Oddly enough when comparing it to the other tires in its class, the Kumho ECSTA MX outperforms the KD and is DIRT cheap in comparison.
Id still spend the dough on PS2's for everyday and Neovas for all out.... but I dont have a penny to talk with so I'll be quiet

First, whats the offset on your wheels? They look great.

I'd like some super sticky tires, but since I use the car as a daily driver, I need a much higher tread wear. I can't afford to be buying tires every few months... especially at almost $300 a tire! :-) I considered the KD since I live in AZ and it rarely rains, but I got hung up on the tread wear.
spoolingEVOx, if you go with the PS2, I think you'll be happy. I hear they're great tires.
