So...looks promising I will have the BBS wheels sold. I need to pick tires.

Choices are:

Nitto NT-01
Bridgestone RE-01R
Falken Azenis RT615's

Daily drivers for the summer only.

Drag racing mainly, but track time at North Park a few times.

Anyone have any thoughts? experiences?

 

i really liked my BFG's they were like $78.00 per tire from tires .com and got there free shipped in like 3 days.

I also ran sneaked out 1.65 60's with them... and they still have tread on em!

 

Jim,

Regardless of what you get hold onto your wallet. I just ordered tires(Re-01r's) yesterday and the prices had jumped not once but twice in the previous two weeks. From 180/corner to 200 at tirerack. Still the best price.

 

i am planning on going with the bstones when i replace my street tires in a couple months.

i've heard nothing but good things about them from people running them, and like dave said, they're the cheapest going so far.

 

i think the bridgestones are what im going to get too

 

best...avatar...EVER!

 

Thanks, I might know him if I saw him. I've been here for 8 years and need a change so I'm coming back to the hometown. And no, I'm not sure why I am leaving.

 

Wow, that's crazy. I'm so glad I got mine when I did. I had Sears price match me for tire rack plus my employee discount, plus a little extra bonus. I'm glad I didn't wait.

And another thing, the Dunlop's aren't even on tire racks website anymore in stock sizes. So I must be right about them not making any until May. For those of you who can wait for tires, I would try out the Dunlop Z1's. Cheaper, last longer, and many claim better times on them than the RE01's.

 

Hey Eric, what kind of shep tranny did you get built? The ultimate ratio one? Or just the regular one with all the options? And what Tcase? Stage 2 or 3?

 

Does anyone know where One can get a rim repaired around here in pittsburgh?

hey, who was on here saying that they were gonna get rid of their tires for free? They said that they were completely bald - I want them! ASAP!

 

I had those same wheels on my Cavalier Z24 years ago. They were nice wheels. IMO they still look sharp. As far as refinishing them, be sure you find a place that does rubberized coatings. The RS-5's had a rubberized paint coating on them that made them durable. Nice wheels - good purchase

Canexican - call me, i have the free tires

 

I just got a set of the RE-01R's...absolutely beautiful tire (if that's possible ) Can't wait to run them on the street - look like they should have some great grip.

 

I had some good sumitomos. Not reall popular but I loved them. Im getting more
