Need New Tires
 
It's time to get tires for my V. What is the best road racing performance tire out there for our cars? I like the Eagle F1's I have on there but the GS D3 has been discontinued and it is hard to find. Thanks

Do you want runflats?

My next set will be Nitto Invos. I have pilot sports on there and can't complain.

SS Beast 05-27-2010 01:05 PM

No, I just want great handling.

Falken 615s. On my third set.

I have Bridgestone RE760s on mine. They aren't the grippiest tires out there, but they have held grip whenever I've needed them to(which is often since I kinda drive like a lunatic), and they have a 340 treadwear rating meaning they LAST. Also with a A traction rating(as opposed to AA) they spin more instead of wheelhopping. I only get hop if I really lay into it with the traction control off.

I just got 2 Bridgestone RE-11's....waiting on the other 2 to get here...they're in the trunk now but look badass, got em @ a local Toyota dealer...they were runnin a buy 3 get one free ad for any tire any size, I called their bluff and got 4 for $715 mounted and balanced.. I'll letcha know how they do after I get some miles on em

ive got NT555's. Im cammed and have pretty good traction and no Hop without axles. Not so great wet traction though. Treadwear rating is 300.

Michelin Pilot sports have 45K warranty. I love the ride compared to the Goodyear junk. Not gonna be the best on the track but will defiantly give you the best ride with good grip.
