wanting to get some better tires for the street, what are some good tires i should look into?

 

star specs

 

Continental DW. Superb wet weather tire, and at least as sticky as the stockers. Also a lot less noisy than something like the Star Specs.

 

I run nitto invo's
Great tires imo

 

hankook rs3s lol

 

Bridgestone RE760's......

 

lots of options, time to do some research

 

summer tire
nitto nt05

good all around tire if you have the $$
Toyo T1R

good all around tire if not so much $$

Kumho ecsta sport

 

I'm on potenza re760 sport's. About to try some bfg kdw's soon

 

I had a set of Kuhmo Escta put on today. Very good tire for the price

 

Til they get to half tread and it rains.

 

I was loving the Ventus V12s when they were new, but now that they have 7K miles on them, I'm thinking they kinda suck. They now feel like they have grease on them, going into corners.

 

x2 for the nitto invos

 

my hakook v12's felt like they had grease on them from day 1.. good in a straight line and rain but cornering they aren't as good as stockers.. BFG KDW2's i hear they are a good performance tire.

 

man i dont like em brake lose whenevee, not stiff sidewallls

 

im leaning towards star spec, powell runs them, so them must be good lol

 

They're superb street tires. Plus they are lighter than all the others in this thread. I have a set of nitto nt01 for the track though.

 

potenza re11

 

Perelli P Zero Nero are working well for me.

 

i have nitto nt555 extremes in 255 40 18 and so far i love em. only had em mounted for a few days but i have much better grip than i did with hankook v12 evos or stock tires.

 

Give 'em some time.

 

Yea, he'll prob be wanting some KDWs. My KDW2s hook very well when the temperature is above 50 degrees Farenheit. I wouldn't recommend them though if you have a heavy foot. I love to step down on the accelerator every now and then and they are about ate up now. About 15k miles out of them which I suppose is pretty good. But the most awesome thing about them is they fight for traction no matter what the circumstance is unless you aren't on pavement in which case you shouldn't be driving on that anyways, lol. I'm sure if you don't have a tune you could probably get close to 30k miles out of a set of KDW2s.

 

I'm realizing now how much I actually liked the stock tires, but they didn't last very long. I only got 11K out of them.

 

ive done the research and the re11's are prob the best summer tire going for someone who just wants loads of grip in the straights, corners, and rain

 

I had a set of KDW's...didnt like them...noise was tolarable.....but I didnt like the delay when I turned.....it took a sec for the tread blocks to lock...
