Give me the tire size and I'll check with my parts department.
This isn't sarcasm either...I work at a dealership.

Hmm I'm in class now...
I drive a nissan xterra...I'd like some good winter tires..
Is the car model enough for you?
[Dec 6,2005 3:03pm - spaldino ""]
well the car model would be enough if the model only had one wheel size with only one tire option with that wheel. i think the xterra's have 16 inch wheels (thats just by looking at them... it would make sense to have 16's on an suv). junkyards usually have amazing deals on tires that are already on a set of wheels. just hav eto call and see if they have a set for your car. i know that my storm will be getting the junkyard tire treatment. god that car is such a piece of shit.

I'll call my Nissan dealership and ask.
But I need the year and there's probably more than one size for that year.

Its a 2002
[Dec 6,2005 3:21pm - Beakey ""]
Yeah, there's a few different sizes for that year...
If you have your registration on you, I'll take the VIN.
Otherwise, what model Xterra is it? (i.e. - SE?)
[Dec 6,2005 6:01pm - succubus ""]

hey carina? Does your xterra suck in the snow? mine is horrible. I had better traction in my geo metro. sucks ass. so does the 4wd. good thing I won't be driving much at all this winter.
[Dec 6,2005 7:18pm - succubus ""]
well the 4wd is ok...but lately it's been sucking! then i found out because my tires are really worn out...so i dunno...

I'll check at work today and post back in this message.

All right, there's still two options for tires, even with your VIN.
You could have 16" or 17" wheels, depending on if your Xterra is supercharged or not.
The prices, at my cost, range from the cheaper ones at like $92.00 per tire to the more expensive Michelins at about $167.95 per tire.
You might be able to do better at a Sears or something like that but let me know.

DONT GO TO MONRO Muffle and Brake!
i had a tire emergency on Monday morning and was forced to go there. 300 BUCKS for two new front tires! I was pissed and to make matter worse they took a whole hour putting on my tires just so they could charge me the full 82 bucks per hour labor rate. I was the only person there. BULLSHIT.
fuck MONRO
[Dec 7,2005 10:13am - Beakey ""]
That's a rip-off.
Mounting and balancing should be a flat rate of about $15.00 per tire.
I can't see paying Munro $82.00 an hour either.
We charge $90.00 an hour at my work and we're a fucking dealership with Senior Master Certified techs.
So it's only a difference of $8.00 an hour to have your vehicle worked on by an immigrant?
That's bummin'!

michelins suck ass, worse tires ever make.
on my car i have Pirelli P7000 245/45-16
and on my truck Laredo 235/75-15

You might have had some bad luck with some Michelins before but they're pretty damn good.
I have a lot of trouble with the Pirelli Scorpions.

VIP IN BELMONT IS REALLY CHEAP
[Dec 7,2005 10:24am - Beakey ""]
There's a cheaper place in Upstate New York I guess.
[Dec 7,2005 12:10pm - intricateprocess ""]
DO NOT GO TO THAT PLACE DIRECT TIRE.
[Dec 7,2005 12:12pm - Beakey ""]
I think Succubus is even more confused than before she asked.

Tire Warehouse on Temple St in Nashua. Cheapiest place to get tires.
[Dec 7,2005 12:20pm - succubus ""]

[Dec 7,2005 12:23pm - MadMac ""]
