Default Cheap 315 tire? (I searched)
I am looking to buy chrome zr1s from tomzwheels (17X11 for the back) and the prices for 315 tires are outrages! Whats the cheapest ones out there for 315 tire? I cant seem to find anything lower than $300 for one (looking for street tires). Can you guys help me out? Thanks in advance

Pete

Nitto 555 Drags are a great choice. We've got them for $169.00 each delivered

315s and cheap really don't go together.

The sumi's are the lowest priced and the nittos are not bad but they arn't for everyone.

they don't sell sumi's anymore, i've looked everywhere. The cheapest tire now would be the nitto DR's.

Are the Sumitomos discontinued? I can't find them anywhere. Are the Nitto drag radials any better in the rain or wearing than the BFG drag radials?

bf hook better, nitto's are close to as good. nitto's are better in the rain and also have longer tread life.

I stand corrected, they were $147 when I got mine on 10/16...search this forum from Tomzwheels and sema and it will explain why sumi shut down on these and when they will start making them again...

Sumitomo's are by far the cheapest, and the absolute worst gripping tire in the world. I had KD's on the other car, and I have Sumi's on this one, and they suck horribly. Changing them out ASAP.
