I have on the Magnum, Pirelli Scorpion Zeros. They are sweet as hell. Nice tires. I recommend them to the peeps who ever need tires to go with big ass wheels.

lol it's not even funny how many different types of tires I run...
on my daily I have Michelin MXV4 crap economy tires.
it squeals at the slightest loss of traction.
As for the AE86, it's a frankenstein of tires.
2 Bridgestone Potenza, 1 Michelin Pilot, 2 Formula GT, 2 Firehawk, 1 Avis, 4 Yokohama AVS.
I think I like the Yokohamas the best.
i currently have the toyo t1-r's on there, and they're ok. i had bfg gforce sports on there before and i like those alot better. they gripped like hell and had virtually no sidewall flex. the toyos you can feel when going into a turn, the sidewalls sink, and sink HARD. for straight line (like highway) they're great, and also have very good wet traction, but when it comes to twisties, i'll stick to bfg's.
BFG Gforce Sports are what I am running now. Its damned difficult to get my rear to break loose with em. Excellent grip, they are quiet and a 300 treadwear rating also make them easy to live with.If I didn't have these, I might run Kumho 712s.

I'm running Bridgestone Potenza S03s right now. They're at the very end of the treadlife, I'm thinking strongly about the BFG G-Force sports next. I havent pushed the S03s much but they're very grippy, so much that I've never even gotten close to the limits on the streets.

I loved my S03's! They are still on my stock wheels. I think they are hard to beat...I just hate the 180 rating.Originally Posted by GTScoob

i have yokohama avs es 100 or w/e they're called. Great dry traction but not so great wet traction. I wont be buying them again just because i want to try different tires and see what i like best.
FALKEN ZEIXENS 512
best tire iv been on
Had,
kuhmo 711 - cheap but sucked hairy balls
kuhmo 712 - some what cheap, pay little mo' for sucking shaved balls
Dunlop's(forget what kind) - Better then the last 3 but tend to bubble up on ya for no damn reason
Michelin(forgot) - would have bought another set of these but i wanted to try out Falkens cause i have heard nothing but good things
Toyo FZ4 - prefered to go back to the kuhmo 711 BUT these tires will last you for fucking EVERRR!
Testing some Maxxis MA-Z1's right now on the FD. Not the absolute best tire I've run :-), but for the money they seem to be giving good performance. I took the FD up to the mtns today and did a full run, and they gripped pretty well. No slipping, and were predictable.
Running Nitto 555s on the Mustang. Decent DR once you get them warm. Suck in the wet though.
