I'm a pretty big fan of the Kumho brand. They are decently priced, and thier traction characteristics are pretty good. They aren't the best in wet weather though

I've got my eyes on the Firestone Wide Oval right now. That or the new Nitto tire

you guys talking about the BFG KDWs that come stock on the Premium 18" rims? at least on my car they did


those tires are worthless. The temps are 75-85 year round out here and I have issues with a simple launch at 1,500 rpm. Granted the size is 235/50/18.


and when it sprinkles...I try not to drive the car. freaking slip & slide.

255/45/18 front and 285/40/18 rear keep you near the stock overall diameter and match each other well.

I've heard goodyear supercars are a good summer tire for the price. I have a set but just barely broke them in so can't say much about their performance. They were a significantly cheaper than Falken Azenis RT615 or the BF Goodrich g-Force T/A KDW NT which were two other options I was considering.
