My FD is a daily driver, and I drive her pretty hard all day long hair don't care. I currently have the Sumitomo HTRZ III tires in 255/35-18 & 295/30-18 and they have great dry traction, but wet traction is okay. My car isn't that fast, just bolt-ons. Thinking about trying a different set of tires, and will be ordering soon. All prices are similar, with the only big difference is the rear tire size of the RE760S tires. Let me know what you guys think!!!

BRIDGESTONE RE-760S : 255/35-18 & 275/35-18 around $728 before tax/shipping. 340 treadwear.

SUMITOMO HTRZ III : 255/35-18 & 295/30-18 around $725 before tax/shipping. 300 treadwear.

VENTUS V12 EVO K110 : 255/35-18 & 295/30-18 around $766 before tax/shipping. 280 treadwear.

I appreciate any comments, opinions, and suggestions!!!

Sry this isn't on ur poll but the KDW2's are great for dry grip and very good in the wet.

 

Hard to beat Dunlop Direzza Star Spec - very grippy, awesome steering wheel feel, very decent wear. Common choice for folks who DD plus some track/auto-X events.

 

Hey Acroy, I'd love to use the Star Specs but they have a tread wear rating of 200. That's too low for me.

 

The wear numbers are a rather poor guesstimate.

My set has around 10k miles, 5 track events and still 1/2 tread - not bad. One track event was run on very rough asphalt which resulted in at least half the wear. Alignment is pretty agressive, zero toe and lots of camber, they have held up well. I suspect 25-30k for street use. for me that's very acceptable but I don't drive much
