Performance tires in Miami/Ft. lauderdale??

With so many members here in South FL, I was wondering if any of you know or could recomend any good places to buy tires locally? I used to buy from EdgeRacing.com and they were absolutely awesome, but they closed. Any input's appreciated.

Yeah, there's still a few places in Miami like Wheelsmax and Wheelsnext, but I haven't found a place yet like the old Edge.

Go to GotWheels runned by Yohan. Great place to deal with, and he does just about everything from wheels/tires to suspension and he can also order some stuff for you. I can get you a great price

There is a site, but I have a close friend who's desk working there so I can give a better word, and quick inquiries on whatever you want. I also forgot to mention that Yoan does wheel repair as well and installs of most modifications you have eg. exhaust, suspension, etc

That's good to know bro, thanks! If you could get the info. and post it here would be super. I actually got a great deal on a set of Hankook tires for about $50 a piece at wheelmax.com. but they'd have to be 195/55/15 only, they still have this sale going on. Never had Hankook before, but I read nothing but good stuff about these tires. I always go with Falken though..

Is that the brand and size that you want or is that just the cheapest deal you found?

PM me a specific brand you are interested in and the size and I'll have my friend look it up for you. And if it is the Hankooks that you want, I'll see if I can beat $50. Is that $50 for the price only?

Hankook is the cheapest brand I was able to find down here in South Florida. Bought a set from Wheelmax at that price. I am really a Falken Ziex 912 addict though. I used to get the 912s for my EMII for like $60 a piece at EdgeRacing back in the day. But if your friend can hook it up for less than $50 a piece for a nice performance tire, I'll be buying from him now on..Let us know what's up.

Sounds good bro, I'm not buying tires any time soon, but it's always good to have a close connect in SF. btw, your signature pic looks great!
