I just bought a pair of Bridgestone BT-023 (120/70/17 and 180/55/17) tires at Competition Accessories for ~$210 shipped vs ~$293 shipped for Dennis Kirk

It's been my experience that the only way to get tires from Dennis Kirk at a reasonable price is to price match.

A spent pair of Bridgestone Spitfires are what I pulled off. They seem to be reasonably priced in comparison to others. I may just stick with these at 69.99 on dennis k.
