Finally got my tires today

[CrackerJack]

I got the Dunlop SP Sport Signatures 235/50/R17 96V rated @$139/tire @ 4 tires. Total of $598.60 after tax. I'm getting em mounted and balanced at my local Fleet Farm for $10 a tire.

Woohoo!

[CrackerJack]

Its a Minnesota, Wisconsin store...

www.fleetfarm.com

combo of Menards, Lowes, Home Depot, and Cabellas. But generic brands lmao, except for our sporting goods crap.

You are really missing out. Fleet Farm is like Men's Megastore Mecca. The place is awesome. If you need something cool they have it at Fleet Farm. I think it is mostly an upper midwest thing. I've seen them in Iowa, Wisconsin and MN.

LOL, In WI they go by Farm & Fleet. The 2 brothers that started the business got into a fight and 1 took over WI and the other got MN.

Appleton, WI? That is weird.....it was just a story that I heard. Don't know how much truth is behind it. I have one of the Farm and Fleet's about 1 mile from my house, and I love it

 

[esalomander]

Oh yeah, congrats on the tires!!

Hope you enjoy them.

I know Appleton is the main HQ and the warehouse where we get all of our crap routed through. I live like 3 miles from one FF, but I drive 16 to the new Blaine store soooo much nicer!

The largest is in WI, but Im not sure which one it is.

How do you like your Sport Sigs?

I'm considering a set in 245/45/17's. They're just slightly less expensive than the 235/50's, and a W rating instead of V. Bad thing is W has no mileage warranty. The V's have a 60K warranty, but will likely have a slightly softer sidewall.

I'm thinking of pulling the trigger on a set this week. Dunlop's running a "buy 3 get 1 free" AND a $60 mail-in rebate. $488 out the door.
