Houston - Camaro Tires

Hey guys, I just bought my Camaro last summer, and as a young 23 year old kid, its only natural for me to burn out my tires quick and learn an expensive lesson about tire replacement! I am hoping you good people know where I can get my tires replaced for a good price! Thanks!

what size rims?
basically Discount Tire for retail.
or if you just want more tires you care less about any of the local takeoff tire places usually have VERY decent tires for super cheap.

craigslist is so much work and risky though.

Mexican used tire places are a sure thing and actually for 20 and below sized rims they get some really good stuff.

Work or not you can pick up wheels and tires for around 500-600 off Craigslist.
Just wear gloves until you get them on your car! Wouldn't wanna leave your fingerprints anywhere else.

the tires arnt "Mexican" just the shops all seem to be.
They are legit and they seem to get takeoffs from new cars.
I had 3 sets of Goodyears and Nittos from them over the years.

depends on what side of town you are on.

all the sets I got still had nubs on them they were so new.

I would reccomend google, ntb, and or tirerack.com compare some prices and see what you see. Never hurts to check around. As for Craigslist or some fly by night used tire special shop.... HELL NO. Not worth the risk. Just my .02

What risk they still give warranty.
And for someone on a super tight budget it was a life saver on my Infiniti when some tough times hit.

To each their own, but when safety is on the line, I would never buy cheap used crap. Like I said, just my opinion... If I couldn't afford tires, I wouldn't have bought a Camaro.

TIRE RACK DOT COM. How much less expensive do you want??
$596 for 4 brand new tires is dirt cheap!

There are many centers where the tires of the cars are replaced, I recently the wheels of my car. I mostly prefer black colour for the wheels. So, I have chosen this colour for them.
