Tire? Which one?
 
I'm looking at Discount tire and it seems there are only 18 set of tires that can fit my stock rims.(I have a 1990 GXL with stock 15x7 rims)

Goodyear Assurance ComforTred
Dunlop SP Sport A2
Yokohama YK420
Yokohama Avid H4S
BF Goodrich Traction T/A HR
Goodyear Eagle GT-HR
Pirelli P3000
Michelin Pilot Exalto A/S
Goodyear Assurance TripleTred
Michelin X-Ice
Michelin Destiny
Michelin Pilot Alpin PA2
Michelin Energy MXV4 Plus

^ Discount Tire rated these the best and I was just wondering out of all of them which would be the top choice? Thanks! I also was going to pick up Falken Azenis ST115 but I'm sticking with the stock rims + I don't think they work with 15x7 rims...or do they?

I have had the Goodyear Eagle GT-HR on my 89 s5 for almost a year now. Very good feel in the wet and not to bad in the snow either.

The stock wheels are 15x6, not 15x7.

i dont care much for discount tire. if u wanna search for tires id use 1010tires just to see all your options. but then use tirerack or onlinetires to buy them.

Yokohama Avid H4S, 225/50/15's i dare someone to tell me they wont fit...i used to work at a tirewarehouse for 2 years. i like the Yokohama Avid H4S, or Yokohama ES100, go with that, thanks lata!

Save your money and get REAL tires.
All of those models are cheapie in my book.


BTW, I run Bridgestone S03 Pole Positions.

Falken Azenis RT-215. not only is it a great looking tire, it's one of the best performing tires out there.

Hankook ventus sport 104's ride smooth and have a nice tread design hug thr road,

If cost is an issue (it is for me) look at Kuhmo 711's

The price is low, grip is fair, 225/50's are a bit wide, but I like the look.

In this picture the fronts are at 30 PSI & the rears are at 27 PSI.

I use the Super Sports on mine. :pity:

I've had experience with NItto, Hankook, and Dunlop. And I perfer Hankook, plus its inexpensive making it easy to replace if you don't get insurance on your tires.

RETed: Your tires have a sexy name.

Some of those are all season, some are winter. You can narrow down the list yourself by deciding in what conditions you will be driving the car.
