I mean if it’s really bad it’s better to cough up $500 now than replace your transmission in a couple months. Non drive tires, who cares, just don’t rotate it to the drive tires.

    I’m looking at $1,200 :(. That’s what I get for getting a limited car with “upgraded” wheels. Gave me a weird tire size

    I had a friend who drove a little fiat panda. He once bought the cheapest weirdly branded tires for it and it cost him 16 dollars per tire. Ge was a mechanic so he probably got them cheaper. Still funny that by bicycle tires are way more expensive

    Sometimes you can get a steel rim and tire combo for cheaper than just those rubber on the super low profiles.

    Common thing in Canada for the winter tires as the rims are easily damaged from a skid on ice against a curb.
