    Unbelievably cheap r-comps...

    $48 each for 195/55/14 Ecsta V700's. $33 for 185/55/14 for you really cheap people. V710's are only $115 for 205/55/14 (IIRC), and VictoRacer's are only $80 for the same size.

    I'm ordering at least 1 set of 195/55/14 Ecsta V700's tonight :)

        It's the worst possible timing for me too, but this deal can't be turned down. It doesn't make sense to spend over 3x as much next spring.

        $33 for a 185/55/14 blows my mind. You can't walk into a local tire shop and get ANY tire in ANY size for that price, especially a 14" R-Comp!

          Might have to oreder some in store in the closet for spring time. Sensing a compound or model change hence the blow out.

            Looks like 225/45-15s are sold out already. Goddammit.

              V700's are not the best thing. I used a set for a few events [205-55-14]. While they will last a very long time i would spend a little extra on v710's.

              That aside, def a great deal for those who want to start out. very forgiving tire and they flat spot like champs!

                        Yes.



                        Actually, I'm going to put my b-caps to good use, and I'm a college student, so fresh R's for $33 a pop? Hell, I could re-sell them to the miata pukes for twice that, easy!

                          Do a hell of a lot better then a 205/55 ES100 or some shit.

                          Yes, you are better on 195 r-comps, better yet on 205's, and best off with 225's, but when you are talking $132 vs. $500, for a n00b, the choice is obvious.
