Continental ExtremeContact DWS - 245/40R18 93Y BSW
Available @ Sears via special order 4-7 business days. Do not go to the physical store to order. They will not honor their online prices. I was quoted @ 961 for the whole shebang. I mentioned about the Online Store offering cheaper and they said to save money get it @ the Sears Online store and pay for the whole shebang there. Then the tires will be shipped to the physical sears auto center location and the installation must be done for the online pricing. The kid at the counter was pretty cool and mentioned that this is how the auto center loses money because of the online pricing and the two hates each others guts.
So I called the Online Center and I got a quote for $740 flat to the tires, sensors, installation, balancing. Plus they are being shipped once again to the physical auto center location and they must honor the purchase + installations. Saved 220$
Pretty reasonable fee I payed I think. And if anything happens. The place is just 5 miles down the road as opposed to shipping crap back and forth

Wintersports+Evo+snow=
. Big part of why I bought it. Will chug right through anything that isn't deep enough to high center, I've pushed snow with the air dam and left belly marks in the snow-No problem. Beats the **** out of the wife's 328xi as a snow car.
