lol@ the chamber

kumho xs or star spec will be your best values. just pick 195 55 15 or 205 50 15, your choice will determine which one you buy

 

Bridgestone RE-11
Dunlop Star Specs
Yokohama Advan Neova AD08
Kumho XS

...in that order.

 

and get an alignment when its all set and done. have the toe set at 0 and you should be ok.

 

I loved my NeoGen tires and they have the beefed up inner tread block for camber wear. And at 70 a tire i can live with that

 

RE-11s <<< awesome tire

 

Nobody can answer your question correctly without knowing what size you need. And we can't know what size you need unless you tell us what kind of car these are going on (model, year, version).

 

95 eg hatch

 

I wouldnt go with bridgestone, i had some fuzions and they didnt ride well at all. heard the same from other drivers. Kumhos are nice and pretty reasonably priced

 

you know what's so great about a post like this? absolutely no information is given, not even an opinion. all we see are brand names like somehow every tire they make is the same

 

Then the size you need is 195/50-15. The best performance tire available in that size is the Bridgestone Potenza RE-11. Another excellent performance tire in that size is the Toyo R1R. Both of these offer extreme grip in moderate to warm temperatures. Downsides include relatively short treadlife (maybe 15-20K miles) and high cost ($115 for the RE-11, $95 for the R1R). These are both great choices if you use your car primarily for autocross or brisk driving.

If you want longer-lasting, less-expensive summer tires and you don't mind giving up some traction, you could consider the Yokohama S.drive ($65) or Fuzion ZRi ($64), which might last 25-40K miles. Because of their better value, these may be good choices if you will use them for racking up lots of miles in daily driving.

All of the above tires are summer tires and should not be used in snow or extreme cold. If you need to use these tires in winter conditions as well as in moderate to warm temperatures the rest of the year, you'll need all-season tires such as the Goodyear Eagle GT-HR ($55) or Kumho Ecsta AST ($53) but you'll give up a lot of warm-weather performance in doing so.
