Blaze through craptastic tires or double for good?

mase · 02-08-2011, 01:34 AM

Dilemma.. I can get some Cooper zeon 2xs rear tires for 100 bucks a pop and happily blaze through them without a care.. or 200 apiece for some Continental Extreme contacts..
Hurting for money at the moment.. thoughts?

i think you would be fine with the cooper if you wont be driving like a speed racer.

I've had general's and been really happy with them, so if that's the case, I'm sold. Thanks!

that was my bad.. after some research the retailer may turn out to be shady.. about 50% chance I'll get them and 50% i'll have to get amex to get my money back.
