I have some really nice used stuff that I pulled off of cars that I own. I will sell them CHEAP. Call me (sent you a PM). I will be at RA all day so if I don't answer leave a message.

+1000 for Marty at Big Bear. I just ordered a set of Nittos from him 2 weeks ago, and his prices were extremely close (within 15 bux a tire) to Discount Tire, not to mention awesome customer service. At least I know he'll stand behind them if something happens, which is why I dont like buying tires online. I've dealt with Big Bear a few times, I wont go anywhere else. :thumbsup

I bought my tires from Big Bear and I don't think anyone in the area can beat there prices.

Go for the Sumitomo HTR Z III tires from Tire Rack... I bought 4, size 275/40-17, got them all for $440 shipped... I bought them for my Camaro Z28 convertible.

Awesome tires, rated top of it's class as a Max Performance Summer tire.

Personally, they are outstanding tires, awesome grip, great manners.

ick, kdw's.... they're not bad, but you'll get better traction with an all season radial.... :rolf

3 options so far that i'd recommend... not sure if you're specifically looking for a directional tire, but one's non-directional...

Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3

Falken Azenis RT-615

Toyo Proxes 4

i'll look into pricing today at work, but the goodyear is the most expensive of the bunch... that i can assure you of... but i know for using it in the rain, the GS-D3 is the shiznit....

The question is do you have the hookup on offroad tires? Like BFG Mud Terrains.
