Default Need Nittos Real Fast
i recently had a piece of metal cut through my DR and i am running on a 16' spare. i have to do alot of highway driving and my car feels very unstable at 60mph. i am willing to pay for next day delivery or rush delivery if possable. every place i have contacted here in san antonio says delivery will take 1-2 weeks. one place has never even heard of nitto tires. i really cant wait that long. any info will be greatly appreciated.

Just got off the phone with JEGS and they hooked me up with over-nighting the DRs.
