im looking to buy a set of tires, im on somewhat of a budget, but looking somethat that with perform well for the price. I was looking at the following:

BFGoodrich g-Force Sport (be broke after)
Dunlop Direzza DZ101
Yokohama S.drive
Kumho Ecsta AST (save money)

any feedback on what tires are good?

any information helps.

thanks

 

So... what do you plan to do with these tires.

 

Out of that group the S Drive is probably the best followed by the G Force Sport. What kind of car is it? 195/50/15 is probably the wrong size. 195/55/15 would be better. Im using S Drives currently and Im happy with them for a daily summer tire. good in dry and wet. Much better than an all season like the AST.

 

i drive a DA with 15x7 BBS wheels. im going for somewhat of a stretched looked, but not too much. I had the same set up on the wheels before and im happy with the size. There mostly gonna be used for daily driving but with the occasional race use (by race i mean race on the streets, track, mountain, everything overall). Pretty much, i want to grip really well without making a dent in my wallet. Also im considering the life of the tires, i want soemthing that will last me a good while.

 

First of all, the sizes you need are 195/55-15 or 205/50-15. Don't get 195/50-15, which is too small for your Integra.

The tires you have listed are three longer-lasting fairly inexpensive summer tires, followed by an absolutely crappy all-season tire. All-season tires offer the flexibility of okay grip on snow in the winter and in moderate to warm temperatures; in exchange for that flexibility, they don't grip as well in moderate to warm temperatures as summer tires, and they don't grip as well in winter conditions as winter tires. If you're not going to use these tires in snow, you'll get better performance from summer tires; excellent choices offering good value (purchase price and treadlife) include the Yokohama S.drive ($72/tire in 195/55-15) and Fuzion ZRi ($74/tire in 205/50-15), or you can save a few bucks with a little less grip from the General Exclaim UHP ($64/tire in 195/55-15) or Dunlop Direzza DZ101 ($65/tire in 205/50-15). If you need all-season tires, the Goodyear Eagle GT ($67/tire after rebate in 195/55-15) and Kumho ASX ($70/tire in 195/55-15) are good choices at a nice price. These prices are from the Tire Rack's website.
