Edge Racing having HUGE sale on Tires
Just so happens I'm in the market for some new rubber and I stumbled across Edge Racing's "WTF Sale"
I'm thinking of picking up a set of Toyo T1R's (245, 40, 18) since they're only $154 each. I think that's the lowest price I've seen on those tires.

Figured I'd share in case anyone else is looking for similar tires.

I got THIS CLOSE to ordering new wheels to put those Toyo's on but property tax is a pain in the ***.
I'll scorch through these things in a year and get the wheels for next X-mas.

hoping to have them mounted before the end of the year. Rear kumho's are pretty worn

Too bad there is no uniformity between manufacturers.
That treadwear rating will be consistant through a full line from 1 company, So when kuhmo rates the MX as a 220 and the spt as a 320, you know that the MX is a softer tire.
Look at bridgestone, EVERY potenza is listed as a 140. I doubt the all-season potenza(140) is nearly as soft as the kuhmo 220.

Okay, so I was looking at a set of rims on there... (Raze R74) and I see no way in hell to purchase them in 18x9.5 +35 for the RX8...
If you choose the RX8 as the vehicle, it will only give you the option of:
Size: 18x7.5
PCD: 5x114.3
ET: 42
And if you just go in and choose the Raze listing on their website, it doesn't give you the option to make a purchase, just shows you the sizes and tells you they have a sale on...
Is there anything a person can do, short of actually calling them? (I'm not 100% sure I want them, but i'm quite interested)

in hawaii shipping is NEVER free... although they did add a shipping quote option to the website since i checked last. crossing my fingers just in case

The RE-01R is at 180
The RE960AS is listed at 400

The RE050A is 140.
But are the turanza el46 standard touring all-season really a 260?
And the turanza er33 grand touring tire is a 140?
So the Turanza er33 touring tire is softer than the Falken Azenis, the Toyo T1-r, the kuhmo MX, Any Pilot sport series, the Direzza sport Z1, And their own Bridgestone RE-01R???????
I call Shenanigans!!!!
