Best tires?

[b_baker29]

Need new P195/55R15 tires. I'm not sure what the best buy is and I'm on a pretty tight budget. Suggestions?

thats the factory size tire. i would change it up a little so it doesnt look like youre preparing to go off road

195/50 or 205/50

im a huge fan of yokohama tires. i recommend the S. Drive model at $63/tire

Well dude it depends on what exactly your "tight" budget is. How much are you willing to pay for tires? Do you need all season tires, or performance tires?

I just picked up the S.drives but cannot comment on them from my point of view yet as I havent rolled them yet. But the reviews were really good. But if you do change up to a 205, Nitto Neo Gens. Love that tire but they dont offer it in a 195.

I'm riding on the S Drive's on my Integra. They're solid overall, the one thing I don't like about them is that they chirp easily. Like when taking a turn a little hard, not even real hard, and they squeal more than the average tire.
I had BFGoodrich g-Force Sport's before the Yokohama's, they were just as good but didn't chirp easily. So I recommend the BFG's.

I find it absolutely amazing that people make recommendations without knowing what this person actually wants.

Depends on what kind of driving you do. Do you need something more for autocross and good handling? Get summer tires. S. Drives, Khumo XS, Dunlop Star Spec's are 3 good ones with the S. Drives being a slightly "lesser" performing tire than the other 2. Or do you just need something to slap on some rims you use all year round? Get all-season tires. There are tons to choose from. People have different reviews about each. Do your research.

Go to www.tirerack.com for prices and reviews.

I got the 912's again cuz i needed new tires but i got rims too 205/45/16 they were about $240 from some place in santa fe springs (he was ttrying to compete with another place 88rotors who were out of stock for about the same price....)

falkens FTW!

the 512's are a POS so i heard so read some reviews on discounttiredirect.com


and he seems to have stock tires.... so im not sure why someone would think hes lookin for snow tires.... Im sure he would have mentioned it instead of just posting his stock tire size

Wondering if anyone knows about Hankook Optimo 727's? I just ordered a set of 4 from tirerack.com (good site that will also make recommendations for tires and installers!). I was not familiar with Hankook but they ranked pretty high (top 4) on ConsumerReports.com. I chose them over the Michelin Hyrdoedge's because they were better in the snow and less noisy. I got them for $62 a tire plus $37 shipping. Install is $76 from a local shop.

Ahh... youth.

So I went to the doctor, and I said... it hurts when I do this doctor... what can you do? And the doctor said, no problem I'll fix you right up.. stop doing that.

I feel so much better now.
