What tires are you running on your FC?
 

Mabey poll is needed, but I dont know every tire....

I dint post this in the suspention/tires section because no ones ever there.
So please- post your tries, what you paid, and your experiance with them.
Also mabey where you got them.

Thanks!

Original equipment Bridgestone Eager 205/60/15. I pay roughly $48 each plus installation. But now I have 16x7 rims and I plan on using Sumitomo's because they are cheap and every set I've owned had awesome grip.

Falken Azenis ST115 215/45/17 front, 245/40/17 rear, paid $279 for a set, special deal.

Toyo Proxes RA-1 235/40/17 front for track days. Came with a set of rims I bought.

On my '89 TII since new:
Goodyear-Original-unusual wear pattern
Bridgestone-Too hard
Dunlop-Too hard
Michelin-Great all around, but not a very aggresive tread
Nitto-Too much tire noise
Falken-Great for the money. Thought traction limited
Presently Toyo Proxes-Best yet. Think price was about $600 for everything. Local tire shop.

I have Yokohama AVS ES-100s all the way around, 225/50-R16.

Done some auto-xing with them as well as daily driving, and they do very well at both.

goodyear eagle gt hr's(215/60/15), paid 280 shipped from tirerack.com installed and balanced myself. these tires suck, the sidewalls are way too flimsy. wouldnt recommend them to anyone. only advantage is that they are decent in the snow.

lol u r gonna laugh at this one i have the factory phone dile rims... enough said HAHA i hate those rims.....

Falken Ziex 512 $48 each. Good tire, great grip when new, but they wear very quickly. I was looking for an all season high performance tire. I want something with good grip in dry weather, but wont put my car in a ditch if it rains. Falken Azenis were good, but they definately dont keep traction at all when its raining.

Toyo Proxes T1S 225/45/17 and 255/40/17. Super grippy tires with a very aggressive tread pattern.

My cheap tires Kuhmo 711's 225x50-16.
<$300 out the door.
Dry traction - good.
Wet traction - better.
Tread wear - fair (which is good for my driving)

i use the khumo's 712's , and nitto 555r's on the back

Where did you buy the Azenis from? A tire place or a hookup of sorts?

David

Kuhmo 712's. They're decent.

I have tires that look like rubber, but they are actually made out of poop. When I get new rims I'll be getting Falken Azenis or Kumho MX's

yokohama avs db decible s2 can be had for 103 a piece at tire rack. great gripping even decent grip in light snow (stated by company) tires look good and size is 225/50 r16 i believe. (not sure about the 50 have to check) work great and those are on all 4 corners.

Razor, I have the same Yoko's. $75.00 each at Discount Tire.

BF Goodrich 215/50-16 (Y Speed Rated) g-Force KDW

They are a great set of tires for dry and wet. I'm sure they suck on the snow. I got them from The Tire Rack for about $120 each (Ultra High Performance Summer Tire).

thanks. i bought mine a year ago so now somone else has some new business;)

great tires.

I have Front and Rear Falken 512 Ziex H for less than 2 bilss Awesome deal

I'm running Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3's, 225/50ZR16 all around.

Don't remember cost, got them from discount tires mounted on rims I bought from bigwheels.net (there are pictures there in the gallery of some shots of the rims and tires).

Impressions, these tires are so awesome. They grip like no other, I love em.

imo my bridgestone potenzas are suxors

Im feeling Ya. I have Goodyear Eagle F1 235/45/17

people actually have very bad review on kumho 712
do a search on the susp / tires forum

well i am using them i didnt know until i do a search ...
they are ok for the price

Which potenzas are you talking about? I know some people who swear by the s03s.

I've got Falken FK-451's in 225/45ZR17and I love them. I just got back from a high performance driving school this weekend at Spokane Raceway Park and they were great. While they don't have the same grip as much softer tires, they have great wet grip and shuld last a lot longer. They're relatively inexpensive (a lot less than T1-S and less than ES-100 with same wear and similiar tread to both). They had good grip and predictable, controllable breakaway and they didn't seem to wear too badly from all the abuse I gave them. I'd reccomend them!

RE-71 ---- Best tires I have had for this car.

Awww. I got Accurets or somthing like that. 215/60/15

Yokohama ES100s

Yokohama AVS ES100s. 205/55VR/16. Awesome tires in rain and sun!

Falken ZIEX ZE-512's for street (205/60/15 on stock rims)

Toyo Proxes RA-1 for track days (225/50/15 on vert rims) :)

both have been doing a wonderful job at what they're doing

Im running Bridgestone Potena SO3 size 255/35/18 front and back

Falken Azenis 205/55R16. Great when it's dry. If a squirrel pisses in the road, watch out! :)

Here is a picture of my toyo t1s

http://www.imagestation.com/picture/...7/f88c1820.jpg

i have 2 sets of rims (GTU and FD) on the GTU rims im running BFGOODRICH COMP T/A 205/60 (all four tires) and on my FD im running 2 KUMHO ECSTA SUPRA 245/50 tires and the other 2 CHAMPIRO 215/55

On the AE I'm running Kuhmo 712s, and I can't wait to get rid of them. Not very good at handling, accelerating, or braking. Squeak around turns very easily. Wet traction and tread life is good.

On the N/a I am running Yoko AVS ES100s, and I like those a lot. Good dry traction, and wet is good too. Can really leave you stuck in snow and ice though.

Nitto 455's on stock AE 16" wheels. Handle alright, but its the only tire i've tried so far. Tread life is pretty decent, have had them for over a year and havent had to rotate the rear tires yet even with all the burnouts and fishtails. Agressive tire pattern too IMO.

Falken Azenis 205/50/15... awesome dry weather tire!

I bought the car (RX7 turbo II cabrio) with the following tyres:
Front: Dunlop 235/45/17
Rear: Dunlop 255/40/17

Although they look great on the car, they are way too wide for the stock engine and cluch. :(

Planning to put Pirelli P Zero Roso 225 front, 245 rear, and we will see... :)

Hmmm, I like 'em :D

They're in my sig below.

i have falken 512s, and after a year (~12k) they're still pretty good. they do wear quickly though, and when they've worn the grip goes to hell. i think they have two stage rubber.

Goodyear Eagle F1's
225/45 17
245/45 17

Haven't got this wheel setup mounted yet so I have no feelings about them, they are sitting in the garage right now. I'm pretty sure I'll be happy though, I've heard nothing but great comments about these tires.

just about done burning up a set of yoko avs db2 (original model). Lasted 30,000 miles. Going to replace with new new model db2. Very happy. Good grip dry, wet, and snow. Oh, and they're so quiet - even now when they are basically bald.

Right now I have some econo-crap coninental all season tires, needless to say, they are complete crap. I would go with goodyear eagles if I had the money, but I'll probaly end up with some yoko es100's unless I'm feelin extra spendy.

i got the Nitto Neo Gen's.....215/50 VR16
they are sticky as hell in dry and wet...i would recommend them to anyone....plus they have the coolest looking tread pattern out there

2nd Gen rocket
Eagle's are the sh*t I love mine stick like glue

Anybody else, this is a good thread. Lets keep it going.

225/50/16 Yoko AVS es 100...they look good and are cheap..:( thats about it. Treadwear sucks and they grip worse than my old 205/55/16 Potenza 910's did, worn...
