Well..at $106 a piece with a decent advertised treadwear rating and good reviews..the Nexens may be my front tires of choice lol..I have a hookup at the tire place..so not worried about the flipping part

**** at that price who cares about camber wear????? I wouldn't... maybe 20K out of em... that would be like 2 years if I am lucky

True..this tire price point for what appears to be somewhat decent changes the debate a little..I was actually shocked at how low that price was for 22" grips...I actually wish they made that same tire in the 295/25/22 size, but Nexen has another tire with diff directional tread pattern..not near as cheap though...several forums talk about this tire and folks really love them.

It would be nice to have a full camber/toe correction solution so you could really get the tires you want that are more expensive without worrying about throwing away money..some folks here actually like to stretch our dollars and still have nice things..like dropped LS's on 22s in the garage

what did u end spending on tires?

Damn, less than 500 for a new set of tires!? Time to go all hella-flush

I still have my Conti DWS..rear tires are wearing perfectly even, the fronts are at 7/32 tread depth on the inside tread and 10/32 on the outer side..so if I have to end up getting new front tires frequently in lieu of a camber kit, I am going to go with these..hell, at this price..you could buy a couple spares to have on deck lol

$106 Nexen tire price for 255/30/22 ---> http://www.onlinetires.com/products/...5v+xl+bsw.html

I am curious as to how much this camber kit will cost though...it may turn out that new tires would be cheaper over the course of time I have the car..hopefully FIGS's solution will be at a great price point that helps their business and allow us to run the tires we REALLY want

I just replaced my rears with these...my guy charged me $270 installed each. Considering what retail price is I saved about $200 a tire

Last PM I received from Mike@FIGS was that the local guy does not have a 460 yet and so they still do not have a vehicle to test fit/measure on.

AFAIK - there is no progress on this.

be careful with cheap tires. You will regret it in the end. They will wear fast, be noisy, and the tread can separate. Those reviews that said they were great may have been with guys in cars much smaller and lighter than ours. I have been down this road so many times with my dropped GS and G35. You figure why not get cheap tires since they keep wearing out and in the end it costs you more to go with the cheaper tires. Avoid the Contis because they are pricey but Pirellis would be my next cheaper alternative.

Yeah I kinda figured nothing was happening,just figured i'd give it a shot..
I'm not feeling the manufacturers in Japan's prices but it's looking like i might end up going that route

I'm not really sure what other option we have at this point aside from T-Demand. any other brand you find?

i'm interested too. youzealand's website implies they're going to intro camber upper arms for our cars but the last time i checked it was still only for ucf30

T-Demand is pretty much the only one I know of also.. I'm trying to cash in on a favor to get my set hopefully it goes through..

P.S. the Japanese stock market isn't doing so hot right now because of france so there might be some relief in regards to the exchange rate on the Yen..

Yeah I still miss the days of 100yen:1usd; hopefully that day will be in the near future; or hopefully someone can get FIGS an LS so we can get some arms made here in the states.
