Post your last tire/wheel purchase

Finally got the new set of Vredestein Sprint+ for the '99 911 earlier today. I now have them on three cars and am truly satisfied. Just a very slight bit numb on initial turn in when going slowly, but sharpen with speed to almost darty (if that is even a word) on this car at near highway speeds. Plus, they look the part without the modern graphics, etc.

Bought an LT235 80r17 for my Ram Truck Dually. IT's a Dean Tire. Backcountry HT, and its used, $48 including shipping.
Has 10/32 tread left
Will put it on the rear someday when one of the tires finishes wearing down, maybe next year.
Advantage of dually and class E tires, if one of the rears goes, you still got a backup running all the time.

Continental Extreme Contact Sport 02 on my '09 BMW 550i (F: 245/35R19, R: 275/30R19). I was replacing some very old Michelin Pilot Super Sports and didn't want to pony up the large cash for Michelin Pilot PS4's. Very pleased with these so far.
 
2022 Acadia SLE, 40,000 kms on car.
Off; 235/55R20 Canadian Tire branded Cooper winter snow flake symbol on the stock 20x8 +50 offset wheels.
On; 245/70R17E General Arctic on Ruffino Demon 17x8 +35 offset.
West coast car, Sea to Sky highway between Whistler and Vancouver 3-4x a week.
The stock Michelin tires were a disaster in heavy rain and the winter tires wore out in 27,000 kms (17k miles).
Hopefully these truck tires will last longer and not get flats on sharp rocks like the P rated tires did.
