I went shopping for Pilot Sports this week. Best price came from JonB at Parts Rack.

$13,000.00 delivered, new shoes all around.

When I bought my (used)car at Fitzgeralds 3 months back. The car came through with miss matched tires. I do not know how that happened??? Must have been an oversight on my part. To excited to look out, and look the car over.

Added KnN's and smooth tubes. Tires are breaking away in 3rd gear. I think the backs have gone bye (hard). The 92 had been garaged. No real skreach when I spin em' and no rubber on the road.

Thanks Jon B

I thought it was steep too. But there are only maybe 2 companies that make tire that fit all around a Viper.

Michelin Pilot Sports or Dunlop SP8000

As I said - Michelins 1,300.00 delivered plus 100.00 install

- Dunlops $ 1326.00 delivered and installed.

OH I GET THE JOKE KNOW I MISSPLACED A DECIMAL POINT. HAHA.

Well, back to lurking.

How many miles did you get out of the set you replaced? I'm still on my first set, but I only have 3500 miles on the car.

Not too bad, actually. I just today paid $400 for one left rear
335/30 ZR 18 Michelin Pilot Sport balanced and mounted. plus $50
for road hazard on all four. Michelin list is $700, was quoted $500 by another shop.

I don't think I can afford my future RT/10... 13K rubber is a 1/3rd what the car cost!
