Hey guys,

the mods bug has bitten me and i think i got a little too exited :clap: and maybe payed too much.
I bought new tires and rims for a total of 752 € (819$) which includes the service of
a tire shop to get the tires mounted and the wheels balanced.

Rims: Enkei Yamato 7x16 ET40 fairly lightweight 17 pounds
Tires: Hankook Ventus S1 EVO K107 205x45

So some of my friends said i payed too much, but i think they always have bad tires on their cars.
Which is why they probably pay less than me.
But even thought i got a pretty good tire i managed to pay only 61€ (66$) per tire.

What do you think was it a good purchase or not ? :help:

I can't speak with any great authority regarding the European market, coupled with the fact that those wheels don't appear to be available in North America, but for new wheels/tires/mount and balance, what you paid appears very reasonable to me.

Seems like a cheap price, although as stated above I have no idea what tires and rims go for in Germany

OK, while they dont sell that particular wheel here, I went to TireRack.com and searched enkei wheels for some that looked like those. $1152.00 for the wheels and 293.00 for the tires. This doesn't include mount balance, shipping etc. So did you get a good deal? not only yes but hell yes!!

enkeis makes good quality rims and hankook evo series are pretty good performance tires...anyways, the price you gave is just right or cheaper than where i am at (south east asia)...much cheaper yo..

They are "just" car friends, some of them are probably just jealous when you get new wheels. I still have good friends that aren't car people.
