Good Performance/Street Tires and Where to Buy for Best Price? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Choco · 04-02-2014, 04:35 PM

Anyone know of any good tires and/or local places to get tires? I bought some new 18" rims like more than 7 months ago and finally deciding to put them on.
I'm currently looking for Hankook Ventus V12 Evo K110 or similar(tires that grip real good in wet and dry). Thanks!

I've had a large number of friends that occasionally go to 714, myself included. Everyone has been slowly finding a new place. I would say their service and great pricing has changed over time.

Recently they're pricing has been rediculous. From the past, their prices has gone up and it's never consistent.

My friend went to get his tires flipped at 714, they charged him $10 a tire. I was after him and they wanted to charge me $20 a tire....

Temple City auto repair. They are awesome and I got a set of V12 evos about 1.5 yrs ago for about $100 less than any other spot.

Well damn... I mean i've never had a bad experience but then again I wouldn't be surprised as there doesn't really seem to be consistency between the employees depending on who answers the phone or helps you first when you walk in. I only go to them because the price has always been better than others and availability is usually good.
