Need Help Finding New Tires

Looking for Falken 452 263/53 18 97Y

Cheapest place I have found them is here:

http://www.onlinetires.com/products/...k-452+97y.html

Can anyone else find them cheaper?

I called them and they said that they would have to special order them cause they don't stock them, and for that reason they couldn't bring down the price. Of course I didn't ask them about price matching.

Just call discount tire again, and yes you are correct, they will price match. So far, looks like Discount tire is in the lead.

^ Well as long as Discount Tire will price match them, I will just let Discount Tire order the tires from where ever it is they order them from. That way I don't have to deal with online tires.com

Good call! I wonder why TireRack doesn't carry Falken...

No clue. Seems like a lot of places don't carry the falkens, much less the 452s. NTB or Firestone don't even carry the 452s.

Ahh.. 265/35-18

Well if you like Nittos, which I think are probably a better performing tire than the Falken for our cars (from what I've read and been told), they do make it in that size. I'm running the 255 right now and I'm pretty happy with it.
