Looking to buy tires today, anyone with a vendor recommendation?
Hey guys,

I am going to replace the tires on my stock wheels and want to get them ordered today. I think that I am going to go with the Vredesteins, or the T1R's. Any recommendation on who has the best prices and quickest shipping.

Thanks

Vredsteins are better than T1R's I have had every set from P-Zeros, Dunlop, Michelings, Toyos surprisingly the Vredsteins are great for the money.

cornering?
stopping?

i know that overall traction with T1Rs is better
