okay so out of all the choices in the world i have come down to 4. Bridgestone SO-3 pole positions, Kuhmo Ecsta MX, BF Goodrich G-force KDW, and Toyo T1-S... how do they handle on the track and how are they for daily driving... winter is coming up so i need some good tires for wet season also... thanx!

 

Toyos and Kumhos would probably last a bit longer than the others if tread life is something you consider.

 

hmmm wasn't thinking of tread life

 

toyo RA-1

 

yeah i was thinking of the RA-1's since WC does run them but then i need another set of rims

 

S03 and T1-S. I'm actually on T1-S right now and I like them a lot.

 

I used to run Kumhos on my 944 Turbo for autocross. They held rather well and I was happy with there performance. They were also a decent tire on wet sufaces. Always could stop when I needed to and overall were a comfortable ride. They also last a while and best of all not that expensive.
I would vote Kumho if your looking for a track/daily driver tire..

i would go for the Kumhos as well, if you're looking for treadwear and all-season performance, kumho is probably the way to go

 

have you looked into some yokohama parada spec-2's?
I have em on my 99' gs-r and I think they are unbelievably good

 

Kumho mx's suit me just fine. There are holding up great, I like them a lot.

spec-2 are cool but don't really see them treated to the max... IMO i think the ES100's are better than the spec-2's... i'm just bringing it down to those 4 since they are popular in the track/street area

 

toyo t1s gets my vote

 

Falcon Azenis are another underappreciated incredibly good tire. My buddy got two fronts mounted and ballanced for a total of $50. grippy as all get up, decent wet traction too.

yeah i would LOVE to get the Azenis but the roads here are crap and depending on how much rain we get this year i don't want to smack against anything hydroplaning... i mean couple weeks ago some hich school girls smashed into the building next to my work from hydroplaning and they were in a bronco with 4x4 tires... scary ****... i hydroplane in my stock michelin's all the time so i need some tires before the rain gets here

 

the azenis are cheap enough,, have you thought about having a track tire you switch too, so you get the perfect combo? some steel 15s do awesome on the track.

 

yeah i know the Azenis are cheap and i do have the stock LS 15' rims on my car... thats the tires i want to change on them... if i do go with the Azenis i just hope i don't hydroplane... only thing i'm scared off
