Tire selection? Suggestions please
 
I am looking at getting new tires this summer, stock size 225/50zr16. There are three tires that I am considering and would like to know if anyone has suggestions as to which they prefer.

The three are:

1. Bridgestone Potenza RE730

2. BF Goodrich G-Force TA KDW (traditional tread)

3. Yokohama AVS ES100

Any suggestions and/or advice would be great. Thanks:)

i just installed toyo proxes that i bought from Rishie for cheap...I cant not believe the difference from my original 10 yr old oe tires. Cornering has improved although the dramatic difference is felt in traction...these things are sticky...i literally cant believe it.

I've got the es100's. This is probably the best street tire on the market when you factor in ride, performance and cost. About 30 bucks less then the 730 and 50 less then the BFG. It has all the grip you'll need for aggressive street driving but I wouldn't use for autox (then again I wouldn't pick any of these for that purpose). It rides smooth and quiet and is great in the rain, what more could you want?
