i think they probably are cheap tires but 1499 free shipping from FL to CA and for all 4 rims sounds like a good deal

that rear tire seems a little big, might wanna check the will it fit thread to make sure that will fit first. also, the difference in size between the front and rear....might be giving the ABS a work out if you ever need an emergency stop in the rain. do you know the offset?

well if it comes with tires then maybe, but also depends on the tires though. dont want to lose control out of no where expecially in the rain and snow season.

$1,200 for 5zigens shipped and throw your own tires on there that will be of better quality.
