what kind of tires?

[scottlis@home.com]

Hey guys I'm just wondering what brand of tires you guys would recommend. I'm planning on getting 18" chrome rims. The tires will only be used for daily driving but I want something with some performance, nothing too fancy though. If you could include prices it would help too (Canadian dollars) Thanks a lot!<p>[ August 06, 2002: Message edited by: Custommx3 ]

depends how cheap your looking, but yokohama parada's are a decent tire [img]shrug.gif"%20border="0[/img]

Nitto 450s are bad a-- tires. The Paradas are ok but that tread design is the single ugliest thing ive seen on tires imo.<P>edit: for value check out Kuhmo tires theyre supposed to be pretty good and cheap too<p>[ July 30, 2002: Message edited by: I_love_my_MX-3 ]

why is this in the images forum?<P>Moved to general. (could be appearance or performace so moved to general.)

Goodridge Auro Street Tires Cost Cash, but they are the widest tires I have been able to find that work good with 16's or 17's.

I vouch for the kumho's. They are great tires and the tread design is sweet! Just dont expect too much from them in the rain

get Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D2's, sweet a-- lookin tires, and wicked performance.

i have the Kumho ECSTA 711 tires and i have had no problem with them yet and they also have one of the best tread wear ratings on a lo pro tire.

When I bought my 17' rims, I put Nitto 450's. They were great in handling and awesome in the rain. But after hitting a couple of pot holes, the tire wall started getting bubbles. I replace them with Falkins from Sears. <BR>I had them for over a year now and had hit numeriuos hard pot holes. They are still good as new but they don't handle as well as the Nitto's.<P>later,<BR>Dee.

I have Yokahama Avid H4's Very nice tires, great handling too..

I have the Nitto 450's. They perform really well and are great in the rain. No problem with bubbles for me, and I hit alot of pot holes.

if you looking for performance i think maybe chrome might be the wrong choice but falken azenis st 115 are awesome tires... for dry anyway...
