Hi people, just want to know if American Tire Co is the best store to buy new shoes in Coco County? I need new 275X40X17 for my baby. I did mail order before from Tire Rack USA but ended up paying more to have it installed. American Tire Co gives you free wheel balancing and rotation for the life of your tires if you buy it from them. I'm thinking of getting the Khumo Escta 275X40X17ZR. Thanks!

There's a bunch of different Kumho Ecstas out there. I love my MXs, the 711s on my Audi are "ok"

I noticed that they're all different prices too. Do you know what the different kinds are and how they rank as far as good to best????
Thanks!

the mx tires grip pretty good, but they dont last long and have some ugly sidewalls.
the 712's are OK

Talk to Manny at Central Valley Tire Works in Atwater... A pretty stiff drive, but he saved me money over buying from Summit, shipping and mount/balance local. This was on a set of 275-40-17 MT ET Street Radials.

Like I said, good guy, good shop, LONG drive.
