what tires are on your car and do you like them? tires are a major part of car performance and i was wondering who used what?

I have the Nitto Neo-Gens and love them so far ive had them on about 1000 miles.

Just bought a set of Dunlop Direzza DZ101 tires, haven't even mounted them yet but I'm pretty confident that they will impress me.

I have ran through a set of AVS ES 100 and then got a set of Fuzion Zris... I like the Fuzions better...they have better grip.

330 each. They're rated to 14k miles, but I expect no more than 7-8k at this rate. I'm at about 2.5/32nds right now and they're 5-6k old.

it has been the best thing to keep me from spinning the tires thinking how much money is burning off the tires.

I'm either going to run a narrower set of rear wheels (ie Rota P45R's or BBS RK's), or go to 295/35-18 BFG KDW2's.

That's what I'm running too. They are great tires for the money. I really want to pony up for some Azenis RT-615s when these go bald.

Been riding on Dunlop Direzza DZ101 tires for a few hundred miles now & I will admit that they're really good in the rain! Handling wise, they're ok and dry they're pretty good also.

i had some Pirelli Pzero Nero (summer tires) before which was spectacular but lasted only 8000 miles... :lmao:

RE01R's are awesome.... great mileage (even with a few trips to Deals Gap), great in rain, insane dry handling... plus they are pretty cheap ...compared to name brand tires.
RS2's do good... but now I want a set of RE01R's for the hatch...eheh.
