Winter Tire Swap
#41
So the wheels got swapped.

Man watching the Kal Tire workers look at my car (while others were trying to find my stocker rims & winter tires) was hilarious, esp. when they popped the hood, I think there was a committee of three there by the end of it.

But I have to agree with the asessment of the head guy there as I was cashing out "On stock rims, it looks like your wife's car" (Though how many wives would willingly drive a kitted & lowered Fusion I have no idea :P)

Thanks man.

I saved about $40 a pop doing the group buy in the states on the hankooks when comparing to your prices. Sweet B) But your prices are still really good to.

If anyone (other than meford) is inetrested in this group buy we (another car club I am in)do twice a year, PM me. The next one is in the spring.

we get them from discounttire.com, and with this years rate, we got some sweet deals. This year we had 16 wheels, and over 120 tires to bring back in the trailer. :D

Im looking for a combo to replace this tire size:
225/45 R17

I think 15&quot; rims will clear the discs
