2005 SAAB 9-5 ARC – tires
2/17/2018@160,368@america’s tire
prorating for 2-P7s – 197.80 (one was OK and was newer)
235-45-17 Pirelli Cinturato Strada Sport AS – $151 each
$100 + $70 rebates if i get 4. it was better to get 4.
put onto new set of BBS rims
they noted right rear rim was bent. left rear took a lot of weight but was fine. front to took very little weight.
while backing out of the rack where tires were installed, the right front centercap fell out. gary able, getting tires next to me, noticed it and picked it up and handed it to me. i went back in and asked the manager what they do in this situation. he looked a bit online but was confused. i said i had connections. he said if i could find a replacement, they would reimburse me for it.
