Default Need Help!

Alright guys... I'm away at college right now and my T/A is at home and in storage.... however, I'm picking it up over spring break and driving it back. I blew most of my money I had saved up on that GMMG GP, cause I forgot I needed new tires. However, I have $500 in Costco Cash. So.... while I don't WANT to buy tires from Costco of all places, is it possible to special order tires there? I'm really interested in the Nitto 555s, but all Costco seems to have is BF Goodrich. Thanks guys.

Not the worst tire around, not the best either though. Can they get you some drag radials for the rear?

Don't think so.... and I'm not sure if I'd want to drive 12 hours back in the TA on drag radials... would probably take a good chunk off their life right there. Thanks for the opinions though... keep'em coming!
