I'll try to get them through Tire Rack, but I need them IMMEDIATELY so I might just call some places around here and ask if they're in stock.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!
Edit: Of course I know I'll need an alignment and tire rotation in the front, that's no problem.  |
You may have some issues with your VDC having new tires on the rear and 60% up front. Not sure, but seems like I read that somewhere.
About the alignment, do yourself a favor and do some reading. i've had my Z for 3 days, and I know from reading (on this site infact) that there is no adjustment for camber or caster on the front or rear. Toe can be adjusted in the front, but shouldn't need to be adjusted until your tierods are shot. Which will be a long time down the road.
If the tire shop tries to charge you for alignment, call them out on it. I'm tire shopping right now and they tried to quote me a price with alignment included. I spouted off what I just wrote above, and like magic the charges disappeared.
