Winter Tires

Hi All. Looking at some winter tires and with the help of this forum I ended up at tirerack.com. I just found an amazing deal on some winter tires. 4 closeout Continentals that new are $350 and these were $130. What do you guys think - should I pull the trigger?

what a deal??

You needed this forum to tell you to look at tirerack.com? Seriously? And now you need the forum to guide you on whether to purchase these tires? Again, seriously?

yes I did need this forum to look at tire rack. I would have gone to the local tire place or worse yet the dealer. And, sometime a deal is too good to be true and this seemed that way once again I thought I would ask this forum, hence its purpose. If you feel it’s a dumb question - move on.

So before this forum, you had never even heard of tirerack? And isn’t it pretty clear that this is a good deal, you need random strangers on the internet to tell you it is?

I have purchased many tires from Tire Rack, they are good.

Can’t comment on the. Quality of the wheels.

Just FYI, the load rating on that tire may be insufficient. It is my understanding AMG requires a load rating of at least 99y because of the weight of the car.
