Default In need of tires for a decent price.

Just like title says. I need new sticky tires that have good tread wear and can hold the corners. I dont really care about the road noise . I hit up the canyons alot and alot of daily driving. I know falken azenis are good tires alon with a couple of other brands but i want to keep it in decent price rang which is 200-250 for me. So let the list begin of tires that people were impressed with.

Good luck man. 200-250 for a set of sticky tires? You must be joking. Buy another set of Falkens and call it a day, you aren't going to find anything more sticky for less money.

With that price range i'd recommend the Fuzion ZRI's, i personally have them and they perform pretty well. I've pushed them through sharp corners and in the rain and they hold up well. The ZRI's are probably the best street tires under $300 IMO. Alot of people complain about the noise

I'd personally go with the S-drives which is out of your price range. At the time i was looking for tires, the s-drives were out of stock (everywhere) so i had to settle for the ZRI's.

If you want something cheap AND good Id recommend Falken Ziex 512's. They have a good thread life and pretty sticky.


I love my BF-Goodrich T/A KDW g-Sports though

Keep in mind the suggestions being posted are pretty much all season tires, not even summer tires. Corner holding compared to the Falkens is going to be utter crap.
