Default Gon Get me Some NittoZ

Anyone think that $106.00 for 245/45/17 NItto Extreme 555's are a good deal? My Goodyear gatorbackz are bald!

Thumbs up

Sure is! I paid $125.00 each for my 255/45/17's mounted & balanced. Would have bought them in 255/40/17, but I didn't know they made that size. Shoulda done more homework.

First thing you need to do is start a new thread as people who can help you will respond to the thread. You dont want people to think that you are a thread jacker. :newbie:

I'm guessing you're looking at tires.com for that price, which is what I did as well. Keep in mind that there is a metric buttload of shipping on top of that, and those are not mounted/balanced!

I just ordered them from my local America's Tire Co. (owners of tires.com) Set of 4 mounted balanced, etc, was $515 out the door. And that was with some haggling the price down.
