Which tire should I get?
OK, its time for me to replace my tires. I currently have Kumho Ecsta MX's and am honestly not too impressed. It might just be me but they don't seem to "bite" well for what is supposedly a Ultra High Performance street tire. Keep in mind I've only been to the track twice in the past 4 years so I'm not looking for DR's.

And very expensive too. Way outside this guy's budget. I had the Generals and they weren't bad, but I say skip them all and go for the BFG GForce Sports. I've never tried them, but for a budget tire I think they'd be awesome.
