Potenza tires make nails expensive!

I recently put some Nitto NT05 285/35's on my rears and came out to the price of your 1! Insanity!

all 4 or for 2? I went with the stock tire and bought it at a Goodyear store. Since it was a flat repair, I didn't have time to order it on tirerack.com or somewhere else cheaper which is about $250/tire instead of $400.

according to nitto's site, the nt-05 doesn't come in 285/35/19. are you sure it was that size? i'd been planning on the 275/35/19, which discount tire direct sells for 267/each. how the heck did you get a tire in a size they don't list, and for a price that low? introduce me to your tire guy!!!

edit: dammit, you don't have the sport pkg, so you were talking 18's. nevermind!! lol
