Tire advice please

I want to buy tires for my stock BBS rims for my 91 vert. What do you recommend? And if you can, provide me links to tire comparison sites.

Thanks!

Avons on tire rack are a good tire. Pretty inexpensive too. They're grippy and have a good treadwear rating. Avon 550's to be exact.

i have the BF Goodrich g-force sport on my GXL with the same BBS vert wheels, great tires! good stick and good tire wear, have had them for a while and good tread still left, good wet traction too, all around great tire!


get that same size, you can fit the 215/50R15 on that rim with no problems

if you get them from tire rack, they will call you and try to tell you they are the wrong size for your car and all the bullshit once you order, lol

If you want to go cheap and have decent grip get the falken zeix 512s, should be 220 shipped for the stock tire size.
