$300 a pop for 17 inch eagle F1 tyres. I got them and they are the bomb. Had to put on a cheap 150 buck tyre on my car once and I literally could make the cheap tyre lock up on command. Hard stopping always made the cheapo lock first.

Having a good tyre and cheap tyre side by side really gives you an understanding tyres aren't tyres!

I ended up getting the new Eagle F1 directionals! Didn't think they are going to be much better, but it definitely a step up! Cost? $650 with balance and alignment!

Other places wanted way more than that!

Probably added the cost of a TPS in at the same time.
New tyres, new TPS, etc.

Why dig up the dinosaur? :lol:
