    Default performance tires ?

    Ok i got some 15in rims and i am looking for some nice tires that will handle well in the mtn's =be a little soft so i can get it done on the street.I would rather have something that is for road course rather than a dr also so something that want crush my wallet.
    I check sluts off my list like a maintnence man
    I drive a low is3 just so it gives me a reason to drive super slow on these rough ga roads.

    15" may be hard to find what you need

    What size?

    Falken has the Azenis in a 205/50-15 but there are several other sub 200 treadwear tires available for spirited street use.

    kumho ecstas are a good choice. falken and yokohoma yk520 are also good, and not too bad on the wallet

    falken azenis are the best bang for the buck but only thing is they tend to wear quickly

    Don't rule out the Bridgestone RE-11 either.
