Hi guys -

Just lighting a fire under you to get your snow stuff ordered now while inventory selection is at it's best. Most of our snow products have come in or will be in very soon, so don't delay. There will be a shortage of snow tires this season. Right now is the best selection.

Don't forget to link through the sight to help support it. Call me if you are having any problems or have questions!

Thumbs up

Damon,

I'm running 8x18 and 11x18 wheels- do you have any winter tires (inexpensive) that I could fit to the rears? If not, I also have my original set of 7x17 and 9x17s- do you have an inexpensive set for the 17" rears?

Much appreciated!

Stay with the 17's for the best traction. I have 205 and 225 for the front and matching 255's for the rear. Blizzak LM-22 and Pirelli Winter 240 Snow Sport are great picks.

Hey Damon,
This is a non-snow tire question. I am considering 19" wheels for my 996 c2 RWD, 2002. I do not want to change the suspension geometry and I've heard people having trouble getting the alignment straight. Do you know of any issues or concerns with putting 19"s on?
Thanks.
