    VPA is the best place to get tires. Very nice!

    I'll be looking for rubber by the end of summer... I still a have a few thou. left on my PS2s.

    Is there's any chance of getting a good deal on shoes for my old viper at VOI?

    Unless vendor(s) will give a "last chance" before a price increase, I doubt it. Depends on availability. I'm gonna guess tires will take another price increase before then. Get 'em while you can (and before our "Year of the Dragon/Tail of the Dragon Event" . That's a great price. .02

    ^ Agreed, that is a great price. It's time for me to buy. I'll just sore 'em for a few months... As for the 'dragon', that may be my last ride on the old PS2s (not too old, just three years). That's a 1500 mile roadtrip for me and all on the twisties! I'll be rolling home bald (again )...

    Cheers

    Amazing.

    So many people on these forums will trash a Factory authorized dealers service department for some sub-par performance, then I see posts about going to Wal-Mart. $1500.00 + for tires another $4000.00 for the wheels, and then go to the lowest price tire center they can find.

    Maybe I didn't pick up on the sarcasm?

    There is no flame intended, honest. I just don't understand the logic.

    (sorry for hijacking your thread, congrats on the great deal!)

    There you go.

    Thank you.

    Steve, I WAS being sarcastic because there was another thread about the same time about someone leaving their Viper at Walmart for tires (or something like that)

    Now, If only Walmart would fix the tune I had them put on my VEC.......

    Good. I thought that might be the case, but after the last thread, I was worried there was another Wal-Mart customer here.

    They can't even take care of the wheels on their shopping carts. I wouldn't trust 'em with my DD.
