I ran BFG's R1 205/60/13

 

Toyos, Hoosiers, and Kumhos are available in that size. Hoosiers are the stickiest if you want to win, but they cost more and don't last as long as the other two.

Honestly, give Falekn Azenis RS a try. Everyone is raving about them. They are grip incredibly well, and have a treadwear rating of 200. Try them, I think you'll be happy.

Who has the best prices on Falkens?

thanks

 

Those Pirelli's are friggin expensive ... more than Hoosiers

 

at least that's what I've read from racers who've used both Hoosiers and Pirellis.

they are actually pretty hard to find, in the more popular sizes, because most places sell out of them...but for an FD it should be easier. DiscountTire seems to have a good price.

 

I just ordered a set of Falkens from Victoria Tire on Monday nite and they havent sent them out yet. I thought it was a good price but they werent too friendly. Supposedly they are going to send them out tomorrow.
