Love the tires but not the installer
While I have no problem with the tires purchase (I would purchase again), I would not use the installer, RAW Wheels & Tires, you partnered with for installation ever again. My tires leaked air & my car shook terribly if I traveled over 60 mph. It was not the time to find out on my way to a medical appointment that was 1.5 hours away. I had to pay for balance and alignment again. I reported the problem & was told there's a possibility to be reimbursed for the balance purchase ($56.80). However, I didn't receive an email from the rep. I will follow up again.

Perfect tires
I have an Alfa Romeo and hit a water filled hole lowing out my sidewall. My son recommended you to me. I ordered the tire and had it within 3 days. If these tires come standard on an Alfa- I'd say they are exceptional tires. These will be the only tires for me from now on!
