Well the time has come. 10,000 miles. Do I stay with the Yokohamas or go down another road so to speak. I thought about Nitto..... Have heard nothing bad. I thought about Toyo.... Toyo to soft. I heard Falken was even a reallly good tire for the buck. The application would be mostly road use. I occasionally drag race though. Anybody have a suggestion?

 

I say Kuhmo mx's...my 0.02c

 

It's hard to beat the stock tire for outright grip without resorting to an R-compound tire. Personally I'm switching to the Pirelli P-Zero Nero for street use and then using either the stock tire or the Yokohama A032 for track days and weekends in the mountains and canyons.

 

Got the Falken Azenis sport. A heck of a lot beter then the stock tires and they only cost me $110 a piece.

 

how were the noise level and the grip on those azenis?? My cousin got azenis for his wrx, he likes the grip, but he thinks its a lil' noisy

 

Did you go with the 245's or the 225's?

 

stock tires were specially designed for our car and are basically the best option. Tirerack can confirm this.

 

unfortunately, they're also the most expensive...

 

Can't go wrong with bridgestones. I love em

 

I'm a fan of Bridgestone SO3 Pole positions. You'll give up alittle handling but the ride won't be quite as harsh since the sidewalls aren't as stiff as the Advans. depends what you're looking for.
