Yeah throw in the Kook V12s into the hat. Great tire for any price.

I voted Falken 452s

I had the tires on my previous Evo X with TE-37s 18x9.9 +22, great tires, low noise, great grip, great tread wear, great all around tire, and not as expensive as the Yokos. I would buy the tire again if I had the chance.

Thanks bro...! I'm going to give this thread a few more days before I pick which set of tires I will be choosing. Pics will not be up right away though. As much as it drives me nuts, i'm going to wait to put on the shoes, and all other exterior parts mid spring.

By the time I arrive home winter will be in full effect. I'll try to post a few teasers of my RR X when I get home. Currently there's AMS bolt-ons in the engine bay along with Tial BOV, Greddy TBE/ down pipe, and test pipe. More to come in the near future, but for now i'm trying to get my shoes some soles(and not to forget, one piece suspension for the big W)...! You also take care bro and thanks for the post...!

I've had great results with the NT05's driven on em for quite a while and they're a great tire! I'm not gonna lie though the tread wear isn't the best, but its also not the worst.

Keeps safe in Iraq bro and since I'm Navy go Navy lol

You just spent a ton on high quality wheels, don't go cheap on the tires!

Either: Bridgestone Potenza RE-11s, or Yoko Advans AD08s. The RE-11s are more street friendly (better ride and great wet traction including in standing water), the AD08s seem to be a smidge faster on the road course. Personally, I would chose the RE-11s. They're very forgiving and easy to drive at the limit. Their breakaway characteristics are very progressive, so it's easy to catch any slides.

Everything about this thread is awesome except the tire choice. I mean, where are Z1 star Specs, RE11s or the RS3?

For wheels like that....anything other than the RE11 is a disgrace......no really.....D I S G R A C E.

Did you ever get these installed yet? What tires did you get? How much fender modification did you have? Sorry for the million questions. I just got the same rims today and thinking of going 265/35s on them and seeing how much fender work needs to be done.

+1 to above, I am interested also. I have seen 285/35 all the way around so I am curious on the 275/35 fitment. I recently sold my car and am 95% sure I am going to replace it with a EVO X GSR so I am just doing my homework.

What kind of driving are you going to be doing? If not planning on tracking, go with something with higher treadwear.
