BeatBox Posted June 12, 2010 Report Share Posted June 12, 2010 the lil left of the side wall can be a PAIN to get off lol i worked in a shop and always got stuck with them jobs. some werent bad but othersgrrr lol. what size are the wheels ? Tell me about it lol we've had to cut the beads of wheels to get that small piece left on the wheel, sucks but we charge for it too. i hate it You're the second person to tell me that, good thing me and my dad are cool with some people at a tire shop, that way all I'll get are a couple of jokes thrown at me instead of a fat bill. They're 24s, the tires were 255/30/R24 same exact tires that are on my truck, hopefully they DO go bad and i can get different ones. i wasnt planning on going cheap on the tires, but shit an extra $100 a tire for pirellis, FUCK THAT lol def not going to spend over 1k for just tires....at my cost.

Over 1k at dealer price? Cuz I'm supposed to get the Pirelli PZero Neros for under $900 for the set of 4 mounted, balance, and filled with nitrogen I believe they said. I know it's still a lot but it's worth it. Quote TEAM FLEX ISSUES Car: 1985 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Royal 24" Rims HU: 7" Carputer, Planet Audio EQ, iPhone.
