Never heard of the tire brand for the first set, but second set looks pretty good and at least has name brand tires.

Iluvwhite · 02-24-2010, 06:53 PM

i would go for the second set as well...

Hedges · 02-24-2010, 06:56 PM

second set looks alot better!

Universal_Magnetic · 02-24-2010, 07:08 PM

second set looks a lot better plus ive actually heard of those tires before

chenx15 · 02-24-2010, 07:16 PM

Don't try to save on tires. Get the best you can. I believe that the worst models in the brand names are still better than any no names. In my book, best winter tires are; Nokian Haka 5, any blizzaks, Michelins alpins, tried continental ts (impressive), Pirelli's.

Marangoni...???? Is it like Canadian tire Nordics... used to be old goodyears of 10 years ago?

save 700$, spend 1000$ on accident....

Kriston · 02-24-2010, 09:38 PM

are you looking for winter tires and rims?

My Brothers selling his OEM 17's from his E60 with almost brand new Blizzaks for 900 if you interested.

chenx15 · 02-25-2010, 03:19 PM

well just update on this one. the guy lowered the price to 1300 for the second one so i think it's a no brainer.

Marangoni's actually an Italian brand, a couple places I got my tires from carry them, they are not bad based on the few feedbacks I gathered.
