One would presume he's talking about the whole set.

You don't want to run 205/40-16 tires, they are like rubber bands.

that's the proper size though. you could probably get away with 205/45's. depends on just how low (i know i couldn't pull 45's off. i have 205/40's.

http://discounttiredirect.com has them for $340 for the set shipped (free shipping right now).

Dude go to Merchants tire, I think there is one on Bel Air Rd (if that is what I'm thinking). They may not have a deal but at least you don't pay shipping, and they mount them and shit for free which no internet place will do unless your rims are shipped with tires.

Fine if you want 205/40-16 then do yourself a favor and instead of the Kumho 712's get Yokohama Parada Spec-2's in that size. They're $8 more a tire and will give you more stick in both wet and dry.

Are they Spec-2's or the originals? The Spec-2 have a new rubber compound.

I got my Kumho Ecstas (205/50/15) for $55 each at my local DiscountTireCenter. They were $70, but I yelled at him and got it down to $55.
