I tried that with the fronts I bought..I was out bidded by $10, and the buyer never paid, so they were relisted with a buy it now....for the price that the last bidder said he would pay, so dumb-ble...I bought them for that price, but found out later that what I bought was also something that you don't see everyday in a shop... $900 got me 4 new tires, Dunlop SP sport 9000 245/35zr15'ss... which are also now unavailible...and up in the $300 per tire range...
I'm prolly an idiot, $1600 for rims, $900 for front tires, and $1000 for rear tires...with 2 extra fronts to change out when the grip wears out. And the rears will prolly only last a year if I goto any events....
