tire ????? - Page 2

Have you looked at the Avon tires? They have gotten some great reviews and The people I haev talked to with them absolutely love them.

I don't know about the pricing on them though. I know they are available from The Tire Rack. www.tirerack.com

I haev some Falkens on the back of my DD right now and they SUCK. Terrible wet and dry traction. I wouldn't recommend theem to anyone who values their own life.

My favorite tire for DD duties with awesome traction remains the FireStone SZ-50's. They are very sticky, wet and dry. But, they haev terrible treadwear. They shed like crazy and last only 10-15K

i can deal with 10-15 miles tires.

two other options i looked at were:

BFG g-force sport (all 4 corners)

BFG DR's out back --- g-force sports up front.

i just need more info on street milage out of the BFG DR's. what i have heard they suck, but traction rocks. i have seen where alot of people are pulling 1.7 60's off of them.

anybody know anything about Toyo tires. reading up they seem pretty good, look great, but they are about the price of the Nitto 555.
