Default My adventure searching for tires....

I swear....looking for a pair of my OE tires for a good price is like the holy grail. One place had them on backorder indefinitely...then I went to Pep Boys but they wanted $345 each....then I went to America's Tire and they don't sell Bridgestones.....went to another place and they wanted $289.......finally decided with tirerack because I haven't seen a price anywhere close to $200/each. I called all my resources and it was even impossible for them to find these Potenzas. So for now, I'm putting air in it twice a day til they come in...found out there was a nail on the outer edge...

why do you want OEM tires? Tire Rack is the best source and cheapest place I've found online or anywhere. Shipping is pretty darn quick too.

Yeah, I've used them for years.......thought I could get lucky with my sources....reason why i want OEMs is because I don't need to replace my fronts..
