A new set of Azenis for the Miata is going to cost $400, mounted and balanced and everything. Something tells me larger tires will cost more...
The cost to replace one OE 19" Pirelli on a Mustang equipped with the Track Pack (this package is due out this summer and is on all the Mustang GT press cars Ford has out right now) is $439 on TireRack.com.
F that.
I'm waiting to see what happens once the new 5.0 comes out. If the Coyote V8 is as great as all the insiders say it is, and the Track Pack works like the magazine guys claim it does the 2011 Mustang GT should be pretty sweet.....minus that ugly ass rear end.
