well it's that time to change the tires on my car and just would like some opinion on what i should get. I'm looking for a tire that doesn't have a low tread life but still has some goo traction. I won't be taking my car to the track at all but i would still like to keep my feet planted in a turn and not go sliding all over the place. I have the stock tires on the car and they last about 30,000 miles on the car with my driving style. I was looking at the Nitto Noe Gen's but I was told that they have a low thread life and if I recall right they are for lowered cars. But also my price range is about $125-$130. So any advice would be helpful.

 

can I get at least one idea of what I should get?

 

Bridgestone Potenza RE750 - good overall tire, good in wet/dry conditions
nitto nt555 - good in dry conditions, avg in wet conditions
falken azenis RT615 (may not be in your price range) - good in dry conditions, horrible in wet conditions, horrible treadwear

i think these are all in your price range

lol?!

 

^ yup...worst tire for rain conditions

not only do they wear out fast, but once they are low tread, taking turns in the rain is fun lol

 

Eagle makes some really nice A/S's, I forgot the name of them though. My neighbor has some and they're amazing in the snow, surprisingly.

Goodyear F1's

 

I just got some Yoko S. Drive's today. They are pretty nice, supposed to be really good in the wet weather as well. They have a very comfortable ride, are not twitchy, and are smooth too. I like them so far, I have about 100 miles on them.
