Question for you guys regarding tires, specifically RE750s

[prix]

Hello, I have some Bridgestone RE750s on my P5 and I have had them for about 10k miles. I beat the s*** out of my tires and they are just about worn out. I am looking to get some new tires and I am wondering if anyone has HAD RE750s and any of the following and could provide a compairson. I live in california so I don't need to worry about snow or much rain.

Anyways: I have RE750s right now at $122$ per tire

Kumho
ECSTA SPT At $71

Concerned about quality/traction


Sumitomo
HTR Z II At $73

Same as above

Yokohama
Parada Spec-2 At $72


Concerned about tire life, I had some yoko's before any they barely lasted 5k miles (Yes, I had alignment done on a regular basis)

I'm having a little trouble justifying buying the nice(er) tires for so much more, But I have them right now and I absolutly love them. Just want to get some feedback from people who have HAD BOTH RE750s and one of these others listed and can provide some feedback regarding grip, noise level and durability.

Thanks in advance.

Consider adding Falken Azenis to your list. They are an inexpensive and perform quite well.

One of the problems with azenis is they wear out very quickly and I have heard that if you encounter any rain at all you are in deep s*** unless you are driving an awd car.

yea too bad they are for 17inch

 

[Prodigy]

o well.. it would be worth buying a set of 17" wheels(if you didn't already have wheels) for that price.

What size do you need ?

 

[Firewired]

If money is no issue.... go with Bridgestone Potenza S-03's...awsome tires.

The S03 poles are awesome but the 750's are almost as good and last longer. If you really like the 750's I would stick with them. But also look into the new Potenzas coming out soon or might be already out or the BFG kdw-2's

i need 205/45/16

and yea, money is an issue, which is why im compairing cheaper tires

 

[Black_Protege_5]

I know the kdw-2's are like $98 a tire for that size.
