okay so i didn't know our cars had pricey performance tires. what's the BEST tire for the BEST price that we can get for our cars?? been looking around on tire rack. looking at kumho. got bridgestones on my car now. i don't like them though cos they're LOUD. they have got to GO. but that might also be cos they're...old. :\ i dont know how old they are. anyway. help me out guys! i don't know anything about tires.

I got Bridgeston Potenzas on my car and they are VERY QUITE (hardly any road noise). I highly recommend this tire.<p>Oh, ya. It's not OUR cars that have 'pricey' tires lol. Every performance tire out there is pricey...no mater what the car you put it on.<p>[ June 15, 2003: Message edited by: zytariuk ]</p>

I just picked up a set of Kumho Ecsta Supra 712's from the tirerack. These are supposed to be one of the best 'bang for the buck' tires. It came out to $244 + $30 shipping ( ~$61 per tire). I even got 2 free mini RC cars hehe. <p>Another tire i heard is good is Yokohama AVS ES100. Supposed to be better than the tires i have now but they're more expensive.

falken azenis

you are a little vague on describing what you exactly want. Do you want excellent dry traction? wet traction? inexpensive? I am guessing you want quiter tires based on your first post.<p>I am running falken zeix512's right now, which are pretty decent all-seasons. good dry tractino, and excellent wet traction, and they cost me $36 each off tiresdirect.com

215/35/18 Pirelli P7000 super sports are what I have. VERY VERY VERY GOOD TRACTION. VERY VERY LOUD <p>Cage

i dont care about "all weather" tires. there's no snow or anything. it doesn't get TOO wet or anything. i just want tires that will last for a good long while and are quiet.

DUNLOP FM901!!!!!!!!!!!!!<p>everyone is using Falkens or Khumos. Try something different. The look SYCK!!!! and they grab the pavement HARD. $160 Can each.

i got sigma regents, they look like a$$ in that picture with the huge sidewalls and white stripe but they look sweet if you get them 205/55/15, and no white stripe, and they work pretty good too.

Well if you are looking for price and long lasting I'd recommend Yokohama Avid Touring series. I have them on my subaru and they have pretty good wet and dry traction although not anything like a real performance tire. <p>Should be about $50 US and they have an 80000 mile tread wear. I will probably try these on my mx-3 next. The wind noise on my mx-3 drowns out everything but the clunking suspension so I have no worries about tire noise.
