wow. i am so pumped. never had new rims before. I'm getting these as stricly spring/summer wheels. Keeping the stockies for a winter wheel and will eventually throw some snow tires on them.

i'm getting:

17x7.5" Konig Tuner 2's wrapped in
225/45/17 BF Goodrich G-Force T/A KDW NT

I like Konig because my last name is "King", and as we all know, konig's emblem is a crown. i like the tuner 2's because they are 7.5" wide and not too blingy, yet nice looking.

Chose the BFG rubber because its gotten awesome reviews and is supposedly a great tire. While i want a performance summer tire, it also rains a bit around here during the spring summer, so i don't want to sacrifice wet road traction at the same time.

Pricing: Total package was $1125 mounted & balanced, w/ lugs/locks/ hub rings, tire hazard replacement warranty, and SHIPPED.

Wheels were $135/each. Tires were $122/each. Lug hardware =$25
I think they guy really hooked me up with a good deal. I'm getting them shipped in 2's (because i don't feel like emptying my checking account all in one day)

Anyone else looking for a great deal; check out Discounttiredirect.com or
Call and ask for "Tom" at X438. He's the man.

I'll try to update with pics when i get them in, and again when i actually put them on the tc.

 

bump.


lol. 35 views and not ONE reply?? come on now folks. does the word apathy mean anything?

 

congrats, be sure to get some pix when you get them

 

no doubt. thanks for being the only person out of 54 who isn't too cool to write a 10 word reply. now i know why so many people talk crap about SL [members] :D

 

Congrats on the purchase, will be awaiting pics

 

well like what do you want us to say? congrats?

 

I WANNA SEE PICS!!

 

Congrats....I got my privat netz from them.....I'm still waiting for them

 

yeah.


lol.. smart ___.

 

believe me, no one wants to see these things more than I do. i'll [try to] post pics as soon as i get the first 2, then again once i actually mount them (probably in april).

if you can't wait that long, then go to discounttiredirect.com and use the interactive wheel system thingy to see what they'll look like.

 

Um congrats, but are you going to post everytime you order/add something?? I just wanna know.

 

Yeah, it's hard for people to get pumped without pix, but congrat's!
I just got/installed my HP Evo Hyperlight Darks yesterday. 18x8 +38, 225/40/18 Kumhos and they look sick!
It's so great to put something on that adds so much to the car.
I got my setup just like you for $1100 to my door - awesome deal!

Post pix when you have it all setup.

 

Hey - who are you to talk? You post on every thread about something you just bought!
Come on now - don't be so harsh.
Between you and tc4italy, you girls are on every "I gotta new...." thread there is!

All good - everyone should have fun...

 

No I don't I post when it's asked. Or when I see it's mentioned. But to make up a whole new topic....just make the search work THAT much less.

I agree eveeryone should have fun, I congratulated him didn't I????

 

ah, whats with the saltiness? I've posted about all of what, 2 things i've added/ordered??? (TRD shocks and [my first ever] new rims) jesus christ, sorry! i thought this was an open forum.

and to answer your question (not that you need to know, but...). yes. yes i am going to post everytime i order something. lol... which won't be that often because i'm broke. well, actually, because i pay a mortgage, car payments, insurance, taxes, utilities, etc... so yeah, when i do get something for my car, i'm excited about it and i'm going to post it. I will update when i get pics. but i wanted to start the thread now. Sorry i can't provide you with instant gratification by having pics on the first page.

and btw honey, i've been on the scion forums for way longer than you, so don't get an attitude with me like you're the queen bee around here. especially in my thread. thanks.

 

Dude, don't sweat it.
I got tired of defending why I have a life and am not going to buy every damn mod that comes out long ago.
I got tired of "why don't you drop it" and "why did you get an auto" and "god old man, why are you here?" a long time ago and just learned ot play along...

You don't need to justify your thread to anyone.
The only thing I'll do is rag on someone for posting "what rims fit on a tC" without searching first.
Otherwise, fair-game.

Enjoy.

 

wow, i'm not worried about how long you've been on this forums; nor do I consider myself the queen of anything except m own life. but congrats on that too. I just asked a question, if you didn't answer then whatever i wouldn't care. I just noticed that people on here do that all the time, every part they order make a topic. It's great you're excited about you're new additions, I get excited about mine too. But whatever, I just asked and got my answer. Peace.

 

I thought he was just excited and wanted to tell everyone about where to find a great deal . Many of us know some good places but , my guess is he was trying to help and talk about what he got because he is excited . Pictures would be nice .
Congratulations man . And , I already know about that place but , thank you for metioning it . You never know whom you might have just helped save a few bucks

 

Congrats! I am thinking about getting wheels through them when the time comes.

Now lets see pics!

 

x2. thanks bud. thats exactly what i was trying to do. didn't mean to sound like i was boasting about it or anything, and yeah, i know a lot of people already know about discount tire, but for those who don't i gave a Name (Tom) and extension (43 for a really good sales rep to talk to.

thanks for the congrats. I'm kinda puter-illiterate, so i wouldn't really know how to post pics, even if i had them
