Nail in tire

DrBacon · 05-24-2018, 08:52 PM

Well, I went up to Les Schwab today and to order the Pilot Sport A/S 3+ tires from them and install would cost just over $1,400. At that cost I'm now considering just spending an extra couple hundred and buying a set of Michelin Pilot Sport 4S summer tires and keeping my current set of yokohama a/s for the winter (replacing only the one tire with the nail in it). My reasoning for avoiding summer tires in the past is because I live in the pacific northwest where it's often cold and near freezing, making the summer tires useless and or dangerous, however I think as long as I have a set of a/s tires I can make it work.

This will give you an excuse for a 2nd set of wheels as well!
