Rims

I'd have to agree. I never get it when people put "crappy" tires on any vehicle. It's doesn't have to be a Supra nor a sports car. I always tell people, I don't care if you drive like a grandma, to put good tires on their vehicles; I don't care what kind of vehicle. You have to think about this.....it's your life and possibly other lives around you. Is it worth it to save a couple of hundred of dollars? The contact point, rubber to road, per tire, is probably about and inch or so.......so, don't go with crappy tires. Notice I agree and didn't say cheap. You can find deals all over the place, just don't go with crap. I tell people, when you need to stop in an emergency do you really want a crappy tire that is going to stop the car in say 80 ft. rather than 50 ft. And on the flip side, if you need to accelerate to get out of a potential accident.....do you really want those crappy tires to just sit there and spin? Just my $.02.
