hey what are some good tires for a decent price?

i was thinking getting some from Superautobac cus they mount and balance for you also..

so what kind would be good? toyo fz4? how are those? proxes 4's? what other things could you guys think of?

btw i need 205/45/16

 

anyone know know? i want tires with good grip

i just read that the toyo fz4 sucked with gripping so i guess thats out of the question

 

Falken Azenis is what i'm running on right now. I love them, i don't drive my car very much though. These tires don't have the longest life, but as far as street legal grip you can't beat them for the price.

 

o i know about those buy the life doesnt last to long and i dont have money to be replacing them offten

 

I have heard good things about Yokohama AVS ES100 tires. good and cheap from tirerack.com

 

lol well if i got it from tire rack i would have to pay 50 to get it mounted and balance.. thats the main reason i'm looking for autobac cus they mount and balance for u

 

really? does it cost 50 bucks to get them mounted and balanced? well, I got some friends who work and car shops and dealerships, I think it would only cost me like 20 bucks to get it done here.

 

I think we really need more info for you to recommend a tire. Where do you live? Do you get snow? Does it rain alot? How do you drive? Do you want an all-season tire? There's alot of things to weigh, there isn't one "good tire" for everything.

once you answer those questions, then a lot of us can "recommend" something to your liking. I recently just bought a set of yokohama avs es100's 205/45/16 from tirerack.com I personally have no complaints about them. I think they came out to be around $350 shipped to my door...got them the next day after i ordered them! Great customer service!

 

i have the dunlop fm901..they grip really good and i like the price check them out

 

i live in california.

no snow here.. just rain sometimes

i want nice tires with good grip for like all seasons like avs es100

 

ok so i just checked autobac and it cost about 10 dollers per tires to mount.. i got some fasle infomation

they told me for toyo proxes 4's 205/45/16 + mount and balance it would cost about 400

so i'mma just go with yokohama avs es100 from tirerack = 365 + 40 mount and balance somewhere eles.. thx anyways

But I'm sure autobacs (much like other tire places) have higher prices to compensate for the "free" install.

JLB is teh w1n f00!

If you're thinking of ES100's just get the sumitomos that I have. They're the exact same thing but cheaper You can ask Hikaru for a review since he's driven on them

 

im on my second set ot es100s. Their pretty good, i havent tried sumitomo but i have tried kumhos 712s and the 712s were very disappointing to me. I also live in so cal, its been raining a lot for so cal recently but the tires grip is still there. Im very satisfied with this tire for the street.

 

i've been running azenis on my DD for a couple years. I get about a year out of a set which is good for the price. But they do suck in the rain.

Glad you seen it our way
BTW, i can also vouch for Dunlop FM901, I have them on my SSRs, these are def. better than the crappy stock Micheln XGT V4 on my stock GSRs. You might want to consider those if you can get them for a better price than the Yokohamas.

been hearing Azenis have terrible traction in rain noticed anything (im in cali its been raining lately so figured u would have got to test them out in the rain by now)

 

they suck in the rain. there are no channels to void water.

 

depends what you want to use them for. if ur not gonna use it for cornering fast or racing, just get normal tires and save money

 

YOKOHAMA AVS ES100!

Has everything you probably need at a decent price.

I thought a tire in the size he's inquiring about was considered "high performance" only. I've always heard Its not a standard size that can be found anywhere, so its going to be pricey anyways.

 

its like putting a turbo in your car but your never going to hit boost...

thats what i mean.

 

i had 205/45/16's ..they are a rare size..i ran yoko prada spec2s, and the guy i sodl the wheels to later, bought another set, he liked them so much, said they where the most insane gripping tire, including the rain, he's ever drivin on.

look like azenis but last longer
