you know jeff is ballin when i want to buy his winter wheels for my summer wheels
Lol it's the opposite man cheaper to just use what I already have. I wouldn't want steelies so buying a set of cheap wheels is more expensive.

They are both comparable. Some sets are identical in price ands will swing every so slightly either way between the two.
I wouldnt be surprised if they discussed pricing together.

Did you have new studless ice and snow blizzaks with the dual tread compound? I had the LM80 performance ones and they were shit on the ice. The WS70s were great on the ice, but only before wearing throug the first 50% lm is a performance winter. what you lose in ice performance you gain in dry handling and feedback.
where the ws70 will be mushy and have worse dry performance. Its a compromise for any tire.

Temp is going to warm up for the next week or so...

Never had a balance problem from tires23, and I think it's been 4 sets of tires. Going with these guys anyway. The price ended up being the same as tires23, and they are close by so we will see!

Good experience with the guys at simply tire. Got my blizzaks on a spare set of jeep factory rims and ordered a set of rims/tires for my moms Ford Edge

Perforation warranty is ridiculous - you know how rusty a car has the be to rust a hole in it? Those are Mazda problems man.
I want the underside and all of the bolts and nuts to be protected. Makes it way easier to work on. Also I plan on keeping this one for awhile and add a sports car in the future or pass along to gf unit as her daily.
It's also only 100 bucks.
