214

I'm looking at a set of 20' 214's mounted with these Dunlop tires. They are slightly used but have plenty of tread left. For OEM 214's and Dunlop SP Sport Maxx tires is 2k a good deal?

I really want these wheels, but am fearful that the tires are not up to the level of Michelin.

Not a bad price if there is quite a bit of tread left on the tires. Although I loved the ride and handling, I was really disappointed in the tread life on the Dunlops that came on my 214's - http://www.xoutpost.com/x5-e53-forum/...tyle-214s.html

That's what I've heard. I've priced out Michelin's Latitudes at 1,600. So I figured why not get new rims and tires for a couple bucks more? I've just been riding on my Toyo's too long and really want a good tire next go round.

I've picked up a set of Bridgestone Deuler H/P's for my next set.
