i need to get new tires for my stock IXse rims. i plan on getting rims in the future. so i just need some reliable tires that provide good grip, performance, and tread life without breaking my pocket. please dont say use search. cuz search on this site sucks. i just need some suggestions and estimated prices. i dont know jack sh*t about tires.

thanks for the help

 

You sure don't know anything about tires, you cannot get good grip and performance without sacrificing treadlife or breaking your pocket.

 

Check Tire Rack. Search 235/45-17. Look for specials. Dunlop Direzza Z1 are great and only $130 with a $60 rebate! I can almost assure you you wont find a better tire at a better price. $460 for a set !

Or you can buy the stock ones for $304 each. Thats a real good deal.

 

^+1
or go to tirerack.com and check out the yokohama s. drives .. $115 a tire.

 

Grip in what conditions? Do you need an all season tire or strictly summer performance? +1 on Yoko S-Drives if summer, B-Stone G019 Grid for all season.

 

Really? You should search and read the countless threads in this forum on this very subject. Heck, you can just scroll though the pages to find these threads without searching.

Like Tx stated, you cannot have your cake and eat it too. Its grip for life, or life for grip.

LV has nothing but warm. Id look into BFG KDW2s or the like. And if you want massive grip - Dunlop Z1s.

 

i can't wait to get this s. drives on my evo.. i think they'll be great for a summer only. now i gotta search this forum for some plain jane evo 8 rims to mount up some blizzaks, to own the snow! good luck OP.

 

i understand i gotta sacrifice somewhere. im just not looking to pay like 1000 for tires. especially for stock rims. i just wanna see what people r running or what they recommend. cuz other than that i would walk into a discount tire or tire rack and buy something that is a crap tire

 

i live in vegas. so we hardly ever get rain and it always warm here. even in the winter its at least 65 -70 during the day. so a summer tire would be just fine

 

.
search sometimes sucks when u use it. plus im short on time. so going through page after page would be hard for me. but i gotten some good answers so far.

thanks for the input everyone. appreciate it

 

Pick up Car & Driver. I believe they have a shootout on tires this month. Or, check the marketplace for mildly used/new tires.

 

i autocross with the yokohama s drives and they are great tires, how ever under review the kumho exsta xs came in 2nd after the star specs, they are great tires.

 

azenis!!

 

^there are better price/performance options than the rt-615s (assuming that is what you are referring to).
