Right now im trying to decide which tires would be better. im looking at the BFGoodrich G-Force KDW or Toyo T-1s ... or what Tires have you guys found to be a good tire ?

 

Toyo's SUCK A$$!! Had em on my FD and could never get traction in ANY weather without mods. I am now running Dunlop DP5000's which run about the same price as top of the line Toyo's and they are 2 billion times better! Super sticky! Love em!

 

Azenis 615, sticky and cheap. Take a look in Grassroots Motorsports at thier reveiw.

 

Advan A048 FTW! Best dry tire I have ever run

 

BFGoodrich g-force KD is what I ahve and I have never seen a better tire on any car, stiffest sidewalls and amazing dry traction go so fast around corners its scary, be prepared to swap em or hang up the keys to the RX in the winter tho as they don't do good in the cold

 

Advan 032R are awesome DRY ONLY tires. In a 17 you can get them for around 159 each on Tire rack. Haven't tried the TA..The T1-R I have on my Element and they do really well...Had the T1-S on the 7..ok for about 5 laps then pppppppppplllllllttttttt. They are awesome rain tires however. I still have my T1-S...700 miles on them on a set of Panasport (spell?) racing wheels......hmmmmm 225/40/16...Actually took the Element out to PIR because I had paid for the session day and go figure..the 7 was down at the time!! I don't think even slicks could have made a difference, but it was funny anyway!!

 

Huh, I like my Toyo T1-S, but I really havent pushed them much. My preference is Bridgestone Potenza S03's. Thats what I had on my Corrado, and gawd damn were they nice. Awsome dry, and very good wet traction. Very balanced.

 

+1

have them on my well currently blown up motor. very sticky and decent in the rain. and if your running 15's like i was then the price ranges around 50-60 a pop.

yeah with the vert bbs wheels + turboII... still with those tires i had very little traction issues

 

+2 I don't run them but my buddy does on his 8 and the only bad thing he said was out on the track on a hot day they got really greasy towards the end of the day

I run Yokohama AVS ES 100's on my 3 which have really sweet WET and DRY traction and through America's tire they are pretty cheap. I haven't been able to run them really hard on the track yet but they seem to hold up so far. Way better than the stupi P.O.S. Goodyear RSA's that come stock

 

Space...I have never seen you drive "sweet" so shut up....*** clown

 

wow, thanks guys , i didnt expect to get so many replies,im running 16's right now, but thank you for the replies!! means alot .

 

Only one reply with actual numbers to back it up? What formula did you use to come up with this number?

 

I never drive "sweet" the tires do . I 'm just all over the place
Well at least at this moment I have a running car .....

 

Well I used the formula given in the latest issue of Import Tuner... If you multiply how many miles per hour the tire is rated for by the number of grooves in the tire and divide that by the road temperature and add 39 to that you get your answer... AFTER multiplying that by the weight of the concrete per square inch on the road... And add in weather for the variable... It's SIMPLE math!

 

If it's asphalt do you divide that number ?

 

Asphalt you subtract 13 degrees from the road temperature and add 3,679,087 after all the other calculations. That would put you OVER 2 billion times better on asphalt! You can thank Thomas Edison and Albert Einstein for the formula and Import Tuner for publishing it... Otherwise I wouldn't have such accurate numbers to provide as evidence that Toyo tires REALLY suck....

 

Mna I hear you on TOYO's .actually I hate Les Schwab more than I hate the tires.

 

ROFL

 

I think im gonna give the Azenis 615's a shot , thanks again for your help...and equations....dont forget tho...to add +50hp for putting the tire comp. sticker on back window

 

You won't believe this, but the Fuzion ZRi have proven to be an excellent street tire and they hold up pretty good on the road coarse. The unbelieveable part is the tires are like $100 for a 255/40/17 at discount tire.

They are nearly silent in turns too.

 

********EAT MY ***********

 

LOL!!!so this is what happens when i ask for help on good tires....lol , i love being an FC owner!!
