I am looking for a good installer in the Northern LA area....say Burbank and the I-5 corridor north of there.

I need to order the tires today to ensure that they are there for me on Thursday. Tim

Thanks for that so far...vendors have been emailed for quotes! Any more suggestions?

Oh yeah, while getting new rubber, should I increase the size? Wider fronts, etc.? How wide of a tire will fit/tuck in the GT3?

Yeah, I like the PS2's a lot. i have them on my M3. I am trying to decide on either those or the Corsa N6. This car will not be a daily driver...more of a weekend run or too to keep the battery charged and of course, driving to and from the track as much as I can. But, I think the PS2 may be a good tire for me right now until I can "learn the car" per se. No need to get the Corsa's quite yet...I guess I made up my own mind. lol.

Thanks for the suggestions. Tim

I called Wheel Enhancement and talked to Dave. Nice guy and accomodating. Also, pretty close to where I will be. So I set an appt with them.

Thanks for all of the input. I appreciate it, Tim

P.S. Wish me a safe drive home..lol
