Well im gettin new rims and i need some options for the tires. The wheels are 17"x7.0
I was thinking about going with the same size tire as 05-06's have. I would also like to have something thats not too low profile nor too thick this is for everyday driving and last but not least whats a good brand i was thinking of toyo poroxe 4s.

Any Help is appriciated thanks

for everyday driving, I have had falken ziex 512. they are high performance all season. they have a decent amount of grip and they are real good in the rain. they are pretty cheap too.

 

thanx for the input any pics???

 

go with the falken's 38street said, or with some bfg g-force sports, or yokohoma es100's are the best bang for you buck when it comes to great performance

 

i run on factorys enkei rims but with street legal yokohama tires awesome grip when temperature ready

 

ES100s are good at first ... but their performance really drops off as they wear down ... I was not impressed

I've been running BFGoodrich G-Force T/A KDs (225/50/15 on a 15x7 rim) for the past year ... super sticky tire ... excellent for street and track use!

Currently installing a set of 2006 RSX Type S rims (17x7) and plan on running a set of the new Falken Azenis-615 (225/45/17). I will post pics as soon as the install is complete. Doing a DC5R 5-lug conversion at the moment!

I would suggest 225/45/17 ... they may be a little thick ... probably look a little better on a 17x7.5 but then again my 225/50/15 setup looked great and performed very very well

Check out this thread ... a pic is posted halfway down with a guy running 225/45/17 on a 17x7 https://honda-tech.com/zerothread/647377

 

well since the tarmac quality there its much higher than here i think with an advan A048 semi slick ud go for glue! Thats my choice and even on our slipery bumphy shity roads it grips like a ****

 

Thanx A lot for all the input i really appriciat it

 

Toyo T1-R's are really great street tires and they will last you quite a bit of time. and also the toyo T1-R's also have really good wet traction

where can you buy those online?

 

you can find some at edgeracing.com

 

yea they are nice but pretty expensive i was thinking about going with toyo proxe 4 the wholw set for 215/45/17 are $360 with shipping

 

yea there expensive but my boy has T1-r's and there are really worth the investment, so if you really are tight on budget then get the proxe 4's. but if you have the money go for the T1-R's. i highly reccommend them.
