Default Nexen N3000 ZR

This guy is local and is selling these dirt cheap. Does anyone have a reason why I shouldn't get these ifI can? I dont look at tires in terms of anything more thanthere going to pick up nails and metal screws and I'll have to replace them before they wear out. I only doon a regular dayabout 15 miles.

I definitely agree. thats why I askedopinions on it. My issue isI just watched my friend throw ridiculous money on tires for his MKV and he gets a new nail every couple days. Now he is on(2) Falkiens and(2) Fuzions. Florida is nothing but construction and irresponsible independent contractors.

He may want to invest in a Road Hazzard Warranty. Here in Indy we have tons of debris on the streets and HUGE Potholes. I just got some winter tires in November and had a blowout last week. Luckily I had the Tire Rack's Road Hazzard Warranty and they replaced the tire and overnighted it to me. I only had to pay to put it back on the rim which was about 20 bucks at Goodyear. I have the Hancock 106 series tires on the Stockers and they are an okay tire for the money. I will probably go 18 inch rims for the summer and go with some General UHP Summer Tires. They seem to be rated pretty well and are pretty darn cheap too.
