You're looking about $1300 for a full set mounted and balanced if you went with the PZeros

how are the NT-05's? they have a better "user rating" than the nt555. and they are cheaper.

Thats not as bad as I'd thought. I'd like to go with different rims and keep the original tires on the original rims.

Check on TireRack... they usually have pretty fair prices but remember to factor in shipping, mounting and balancing.

I found the place I always deal with had a better price once all was said and done. Like I said, $650 for rear. The fronts were fine... funny how that works!

I am on my third set of rears and second set of fronts. To be fair tho, I got a gash in a rear tire so I had to replace them. SUCKED. They were only about half worn down. Ended up selling the one decent one for $50.
