Default quick tire question

I know you guys constantly go through tires. Where is a good place around to go that sells used tires? I don't want to get pieces of shit that barely last, but I don't need super tires either. Just something that I can fuck around with and still have to drive normally. I can't find a place around my house that has my size. 235/40/18 Thanks

if your looking for tires just to drift on and screw around with, i suggest going back to your stock wheels, and finding tires much easier.
235-40-18 is kind of a hard size to find.

yeah, i have some shitters on my stock wheels right now. My car isn't really the best car to drift with so I don't do much of that. The problem is that I have too much camber on the rear wheels and the inside of the tires are getting eaten up. I guess thats what I get for being a dumbass and not aligning everything after lowering the car.

well, getting the shit to align it, and doing that will end up being cheaper in the long run.
you can get cheap ebay rear upper control arms for 100$, and at least get more adjustment.
