Wheel/Tire package on TireRack.com
I stumbled across a 2012 post from a member named Detainu. https://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=9349
Similarly, I'm looking at Black 18X8 +45 Enkei Raijin's with 225X45X18 Goodyear Eagle Exhilarate's. I know I want all-season, and these appear to have great ratings. I did the wheel and tire package on Tire Rack.com and the total comes out to $1,900ish. 1) Is it worth $1,900? 2) I don't have any dedicated shops near me, the best being a Firestone. Would you ship them there? Seems sketch. |

Why ship to Firestone? TireRack will mount and balance the tires on the wheel for free. Just have them do that and ship it directly to where you live.

I mean, its definitely not a BAD deal, last season i bought enkeis from tire rack mounted/balanced 18x8 w uhp summer for 18-1900, so ur right on the mark.
with that said, there are about a million used sets of enkeis for sale in the classifieds section for much less, hell theres even weds in there. dont sleep on 17x9 either, i actually think 17 looks better because i like a meaty setup, big sidewall. more aggressive than having "big fancy rims" buy a floor jack + stands + torque wrench, dont ship them to firestone
