well need some help deciding on tires. I am installing the EFR 6758 here in the next few weeks. I am looking for some better tires to get more grip on the street. please vote and leave comments.


1) BFGoodrich g-Force Sport COMP-2 235/40ZR18 91W BSW

2) Michelin Pilot Super Sport 235/40ZR18XL 95Y B

3) Continental ExtremeContact DW 235/40ZR18 92Y BSW


I am leaning more towards the Michelin Pilot Sports.

I like straight line performance Drag Racing a lot. Traction is very important, but dont want a tire that will wear down super fast. I drive 8 miles per day to work and back and then the car sits in the garage most the weekend.

 

are you looking for traction or a good all around tire? do you like straight lines or curves? more info please

 

i just ordered the gforce sport comp2's, hoping they are good

 

i have heard nothing but good things about the extreme contact DW's.

 

Updated first Post!!

 

cool, also you may want to check out the nt05's and the star specs aswell. I would also suggest the nt01's. they wont last aslong as all the tires you listed or the two i just listed but they will be better for traction because of the softer compound. I never ran any of the tires you suggested so i really dont have anything for ya but im sure plenty of people on this site can help.

 

this^ I would have tried these but they are pricey and i would rather spent that kinda money on a radial.

 

the michelin's are $226 a piece.

 

u ever think bout toyo proxes

 

I had the Conti DW and they were good but with the power your going to have youll want something with more grip, I have the BFGs now and love them. Cant go wrong with either one

 

Nitto 555, love them. Removed 99% of the TQ steer i used to get from conti`s. Not the greatest in heavy rain.

 

continental

 

No the ones i listed are the ones Ive seen mentioned the most on the site.



I thought you guys would say Michelin.......but most are saying Conti's.....Hmm

 

At the price of 226 a piece get Bridgestone re11s, very very good tire.

 

I used one of these as a full size spare while I ordered another and it rubbed like crazy! In the rear. I'm lowered on tenzo R's

 

I'll go for nitto also! they are amazing tires

 

I got a spare set of TC wheels I'm going to put NT01's for the strip....... I'll have to look at the other suggestions you guys mentioned.

 

I have GoodYear GT All Season tires on my car. Love the way they look on the car and the ride is quiet and smooth ride.

 

See our most recent test of the Conti vs Michelin here, and stay tuned later this month for test results on the BFG.

 

This!
guy at work ahs these on his GTO, grip very well! from your list i would go with Conti's. ive never liked Michelin.

 

I just put on some yokohama s drives and they hook pretty good. 150 a tire for stock size

 

read this the other day. id go with the hankooks if you want awesome dry performance with a reasonable price.
