16 inch Rota Grids and tires (not a fs thread)
I just bought a set of 16x7 rota grids from a friend, and i need some tires. I am looking for a good tread life, medium performance tire that does good in the wet and not bad in the dry. Since i live in South FL, and it is the rainy season wet traction is a priority. Im not looking for a low profile tire, basicaly something that will look good with the rim. My car is lowered on H&R sports 1.75 inch's in the front and 1.5 in the back. All opinions and personal experience is welcome . If there are previous threads about this please direct me to them, because i searched and could not locate any of them.

I say either toyo's or falken. Eitherone is gonna be a good tire. The falkens wont last long though

yokohama or kumhos are good
just remember, the more expensive in the performance section, the less they last |

Falkens won't last long? ...are Azenis the only Falkens that you think exist? https://honda-tech.com/forums/images...s/emhammer.gif Falken Ziex tires are known to last a while... Azenis are known to wear quite fast. There have been a few tire threads recently in which i've said I think the Falken Ziex's i have mounted on my wheels are great tires. 205/50/15's like i have go for around $200+ shipped. |

There are really good in the rain and probably average in dry weather. I would recommend them for your conditions. |
Re: 16 inch Rota Grids and tires (bruce_eli)
Now im in a debate with my friend, Which would better suit my needs. 205 45 16, or 215 45 16. I dont drag race since i am still rocking the sohc and know what times i can pull. Basicaly just city driving (to work and school), and sometimes highway. How long would the yok's last compared to the ziex with normal driving habits?
