What Tires do You Use?!?!

[spicynamja]

I just bought a set of Nitto Neogens, got em for about 440 installed. I notice that the traction is better, wheelhop is almost eliminated (without mounts), and overall performance is nice. However they are a little heavier (might just be cause my old potenzas were BALD) they feel like they slowed my car a little bit. I can launch pretty well in these though.
What tires do all of you use on your cars? Potenzas are really good, but there are better tires out there, for A LOT cheaper than what the potenzas go for.

I use Yokohama AVS ES100's, 205/50R16 on the stock wheels. These are nice, affordable summer tires for those who don't have TOO much power, but want a good amount of grip. They grip like crazy once they're hot, for sure, and I havn't had any hydroplaning problems with these tires ever. They're much more predictable and pleasant to corner with, too, as they can be felt and heard sliding a little bit, then when you break traction, finally, they REALLY let you know... They squeal loudly when they actually break free, and sound like they're skidding if you're getting close to your cornering limit.

Toyo Proxes T1-S.

AMAZING TIRES. These tires are a huge improvement over stock with better grip and a much better transition from grip to no-grip. With the stock tires from day 1 felt like it was there or it wasn't. With these the transition is much more forgiving, there is more grip, wet traction is great, and tread life is supposed to be better.

stock right now RE040. For the yoko es100, I heard they get noisy after being worn down a little bit, is that true? and is it nosier than RE040??

 

[ZMN BY U]

nitto gens are very good had them for 3 months now great traction

The ES100's, even after 45k (!) miles, still have 5/32nd's tread left, and they're still nice and quiet, at least to me; I don't notice tire noise as much as some, though, I guess, except when I put my winters on... Uugh... Talk about tire noise. Those are loud as hell.

i believe potenza are only rated for 10,000 miles..i don't care for them, so i got the fuzion z rated..they grip really well.

I have used a lot of tires including;yoko avs100's,neo-neogens,toyo proxes-4,bf-goodwrench KDW,perelli p-zero-nero,perada spec-2's and a few more.

BUT, the best I would have to say is the bf KDW's but they are rather expensive.
In second place I would have to vote the TOYO proxes-4.They have awsome grip,last long,no hydro-plaining,low noise,resenable cost,and they look good aswell.

just my 2 cents,other people may feel differently

Goin to try Kumho Escta MX's... Besides those tires, If I really had the money, Michlan Pilots all the way!

no way the kumho ecsta's were cheep crap.beware of the sidewalls getting bubbels the size of golf balls.It happend on three of mine at seperate times
the only reason I kept using then is cause I got insurence on them so they kept replqacing them for free.
but if thats what you want then go ahead.

 

[Sushi-Monster]

thats crazy

how is the performance on those tires??? s*** I might as well hit the Toyo Proxies after all
