Buy a nice summer tire....all seasons are garbage.

 

[Poopshinanigans]

You should order from Tire Rack and then get them mounted at a local shop. Just don't go to the NTB on golf and algonquin, that place blows.

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

I always get my tires from tirerack. Then hit up that place in palatine shomuff went to for $10 installs.

He hooked my brother up with tires for his FJ for a great deal.

I'm pretty sure Dan doesn't want to get shot going to that place.

 

[EmersonHart13]

Some of the stereotypes people have for areas are hilarious.

If you walk around at night flashing gang signs then yeah you might get shot but otherwise you will be fine.

I drove through Cicero the other day and I am still breathing, oh and I will be going there tonight to so bdyman can take a look at my gf's car.

And no I won't be packing any 'heat'.

That's where I go. They can handle bigger tires too without mauling the rims. But I usually buy my tires on-line for cheap and have Suburban Tire mount/balance them.

 

[Angus]

suburban tire charge you more for your 10.5" rims?
The one out here in St. Charles said they would...

 

[blakbearddelite]

I don't think so, they've never stated that they would charge me more. I'd have to look at my last bill from them.
