Default Freeway street tires?

Im building a B20v Del Sol Freeway Monster. Some get there kicks from drag racing, others from course, Me its the freeway. So ive adjusted everything that suits the freeway to my advantage. Just Want to see if anyone has noticed a tire being exceptionally well on the freeway? I will be running drag tires when jumping off the line so not worried about a heavy duty traction like the nitto drags.

Any help is always greatly appreciated.

and why the f*** are you going to be endangering people in the freeway driving like a f***ing idiot going well over the speed limit?
go to a damn track and speed there!
all you are going to do is:
1) get pulled over, car will be towed and crushed crushed, you will be arrested and charged with a felony and for wreckless driving, and your license will be revoked
2) you will lose control, crash, hit other cars and possibly kill children.
then you will cause traffic.

It was a bit forward but you have to understand that people die because of the stupid things that people do on the street. Cars are dangerous and people should be responsible with them.

How would you feel if your best friend died because of someone elses negligent driving and someone came on here talking about street racing?

It goes beyond not getting banned from Honda-Tech...

Ok, I'll be the nice guy here...

...in terms of TIRES,...

...NOT speeding on the freeway.

I've had good luck with Dunlop and Kumhos.
Right now I've got Ecsta AST's on. Affordable, quiet and grippy (they wear kinda fast though.)


Anyone else, input on tires for this guy?


...oh yea...OP...don't speed and put others [and yourself] at risk. That's just straight retarded.

Well that explains a lot get a life do your racing at legal events. They don't cost much and you won't have to deal with all the bad stuff that comes from street racing. I will now answer your question try generals avil at WalMart. They should keep the rest of us on the road safe from you.

wow, at 18 i didn't think id ever be agreeing with these guys, street racing is plain retarded. Ive seen countless "tuner groups" hang out at the Mobil station up the street looking for trouble, it gets pretty annoying. Messing around on the interstate with another car for a minute is fine, you put a **** load of money into your car, you should be able to have a little fun with it, but if your planning to build a del sol that's built purely to go fast on the freeway i hope you crash into a guardrail. A del sol is probably the worst platform for this too.

You are why driving citations are outrageous now days along with insurance. You also make people our age (Yes I'm twenty as well) look stupid as hell. Your grammar is awful, obviously the "modded evo's" you raced weren't even racing you, and you try to come off as some gangster which in reality your a ***** about like the rest of them. Just kill yourself please.....
