did you know that 23.4% of asian families in the US make over $100K, the highest of all racial groups.
17.3% of white families, 6.8% of black families, 7.5% of hispanic families and 15.1% for all families make over $100K.

probably would have been better off ordering the tires from customwheelsdirect then just getting them mounted and balanced locally

i wanted free rotation and needed tires quick, my alignment was bad and one tire was bald. I commute 140 miles a day.

Man I cant believe your tires went bald at 20000 miles.

I checked mine the other day and they look brand spanking new still, lol! Thing is I have burnt out a few times with them and I drive pretty spirited.

Did you hit something to knock your alignment out of place to where it would make your tires wear unevenlly?

Make sure you take care of these ones. 600 dollars every 20000 would break me. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

i dropped the rear right wheel into a big *** pot hole and thats the tire that was fuxored. The other three looked like were at least 2/3 worn.. they would have lasted a few more K, but i thought fuk it and replaced them all at once. The road noise was starting to really ****.

California i drive an 06 black focus zx3 and its comfortable. Its a good commuter car, nothing fancy. i put a decent aftermarket stereo with sirius and a 12 disk changer for the long commute.

the best part of my car is that it ha heated seats for teh cold south dakota blizzards11@!

That is probably why it was so far out of alignment. Sucks as it could have saved you some dough for a while, but at least you got some new tires. Let me know how they hold up.
