Has anyone used their service as they are in Maple Ridge?... they seem to have pretty good prices.

I am pricing out a set of Falken ZIEX ze-512's...

I've heard that they do have competative prices. Let me know how those Falkin's run in the wet. I was thinking of getting those for my winter rims.

i think those are the ones i have. THe ones with the None directional tread right? If so they sure pull to the right. But nothing too bad. They are awesome for dragging. I love my falkens.

They are unidirectional (only can spin one way)... and if your car is pulling to the right, it means you need a wheel alignment... or something is fawked up.

I agree with Shades that you'll need a wheel alignment if your car pulls to the right. If the wheel alignment is fine, then have your rims checked out. One them could be bent.
