$715 for a tire is ridiculous. That's US as well

They are amazing tires, but certainly wouldn't want to be burning through at set a season. Base GT350 Size: 305/30ZR19 are $554US and Size: 295/30ZR19 are $512US, quite a difference, even in US$.

I was sending the video, but I priced tires for mine, rears 546, fronts 485 each.
Compare equal performance tires, thats the kind of money you spend.
Its all relative.

That looks awesome, whats the low down on Opticoat? I'm not familiar with the process, but it looks awesome.

Is it a wrap, or applied like a wax? If you get it done, do you wax right over it? Or do you have to wax at all? I'm jealous you guys don't have any snow, darn that looks Really sweet. lol

Ya was all gone, getting 10 to 20 tonight. but no frost here, so should be gone quick, fairly mild winter, after last year, we deserve it

Opti-coat, is a high end ceramic wax.
So basically your authorized dealer. would do the
decontamination of paint, then buff, they did two part buffing process
on my car. then apply the opti-coat, then the pro plus is applied.
on a normal car opti-coat is 5 year warranty the plus is 7 year.
so I figure it should last 10 plus on this car.
means every few years a light clay bar ( maybe) depending on use.
wash and drive it. no wax needed.
Also because mine is black, no swirls ( ever)
Wraps will protect better but much more money.
If I were doing that, Likely Xpel.
If you wanted to do Xpel, guy on other forum in your area
is doing it. ( Derand)

Not sure about the wrap thing, thats new to me. Thanks for the info on Opticoat, sound like they came right to your house, looks great, saves a lot of work waxing.

Sickest i've seen in a while. Absolutely love it. Best colour combo i've seen.

Man that looks sick.
One thing though, I don't know if I would clay bar it while that is on it. The clay bar strips the paint of "all things" on it, which gives you a clean surface to re apply a fresh coat of wax. I could see you using a quick detail spray wax like mothers fx series, or detailer spray to keep it gleaming maybe.
