Got my tires mounted on my ML350. Had an appointment and still had to wait 45 minutes.....wankers.

Compared my Tire Rack price to Pep Boys....saved 80 bucks a tire.

I've had Coopers on my S10 pickup truck for the past few years, not bad at all.

I think they are designed and made in USA if I'm not mistaken.

Got my General Grabber ATX's from Tire Rack. Going to let them sit for awhile and get a few more miles on my BFG's. They were around $1k all in with a $100 Visa gift card rebate.

Last week we put new Hoosiers on the 3.0 Turbo, track rubber on the 87 944S and this week the Featherlite.




The only issue I had was that a tire was mislabeled and I had to go back today when the correct one came in.
