Woo! I bought four new tires today. They should be here on Friday. They’re Hankook Ventus H105 205 R16 55 ultra high performance all-season radials. The price was $125 per tire including installation and balancing.

Ventus V4ES H105
* Ultra-High Performance All Season The superb wet and dry handling is competitive with some of the best UHP summer tires available, but the Ventus V4 es also gets twice the winter performance of the typical summer UHP tire. The best technological advances in profile design, construction, tread pattern and tread compound have been applied together in one state-of-the-art tire. The result is a sophisticated tire that provides excellent handling in all weather conditions, along with an advanced, cutting-edge appearance.

Ok none of this may seem too interesting to you, but to me it means no more daily trips to the gas station to pump up my leaky old tire. Added bonus: I can go around corners faster. :bounce:
That is a sweet looking tread. Price seems reasonable to me … but I don’t buy tires for cars all the time 😉
Glad you finally are getting this done …. ok, soooo, when’s the windshield getting replaced? 😉
hahaha I was going to ask about the windshield next!! Manyk beat me to it 😀
I read the journal, now the hankook tire commercial is stuck in my head. I’m glad you finally got it fixed and equally excited you can go around corners faster 😛
mmm tires
If you heard my phone conversation with the tire place when I was arranging tires for my mom’s car you would probably never talk to me again. heh
“we need new tires”
“what kind of tires do you want”
“i have a choice?”
“i want the pretty ones”
*giggle*
i wonder how many times a day those guys have to do that
haha… when tire guys hear “pretty” they think “$$$$$$!” 😀
and the windshield doesn’t matter to me. i think it will get replaced just before i take the car back to the dealer 😛
