I talked to the Discount Tire manager and he told me it belongs to the owner of StopTech. I was told the ST owner frequently buys his tires from the DT manager but someone usually comes by to drop off the wheels to get the tires mounted and then they pick them up and mount the wheels on the car themselves.

This time around the ST owner brought some new wheels and needed the tires mounted with the pressure sensor which is why the car was brought and left there.

Apparently he rolled up in the Ferrari and took off in a new GTR. :P

Lame cellphone pics:




















These are going to be mounted, HRE's with the rears being 11' wide!

I used to goto discount tire on the regular, but always have issues with balancing. This last set I bought from them because I had no choice ( emergency) and they did a decent job of balancing them. They can get any wheel or tire and will price match. Its hard to beat. When I take my car in they leave it parked over two spots after the car is done. I have to admit they do a decent job.



PS They can even get Volks, Rays, AME,etc.
