hows it going.. what do you guys recommend in terms of good traction for a stock 15 wheel?? ...

 

Falken Azenis. IMHO best bang for the buck tire. Or if you have the funds, Yokohama Parada Spec 2's.

 

Thanks.

umm he said a stock 15 inch wheel. they don't make azenis or paradas in a 205 55 15 to fit an accord. also i assume he means more of a stock replacement tire for which i would reccomend bridgestone RE950s or dunlop D60 A2s.

 

Dunlop SP sport A2

 

i have the bridgestone re-730 205/55/15

I thought they did make the azenis in one 15" size, the 205/55/15.

I had the bridgestone RE950 on my EX rims and liked them a lot, good tire.

The Kumho Supra 712 are decent tires for the price also.

 

^nope 205 50 15, that's what the civic and teg guys use

 

Don't know if you have them in the Land of the Free, but I've just bought Pirelli P6000 Powergys for my '95 Accord, and I tell you they are the best tires I've had. They are quiet, ride, handle and get the power down well.

yep, it's cheap and chunky

but kumho 712 is not bad neither

 

Nankang ES-500's

 

Bridgestone Potenza's or Turanza's They have some new technology on there tires that improve stopping distance and handling in the rain. Then again so does Goodyear.

 

If you want to have a tire year round I'd reccomend the Dunlop SP sport A2.
it's quite good in both dry, wet and even snow

good tire...cheap. They do firm-up a bit when there older...

An alternative to the D60A2's would've been what I currently run right now - Yoko AVS intermediates but sadly, they no longer make them...(wear very fast though).

 

I've been *mostly* happy with my Azenis on my Accord (but they're 16", not 15s). I say "mostly" because they ARE a rather loud tire. They've been fine in the rain, but as they wear, that gets noticeably worse. I've got a bit under 10,000 miles on them, and they still have good tread and GREAT grip - hard to beat them for the money. Talking with many people who run the Azenis, they seem to be good for 18-20k miles, which isn't bad at all considering the price and amount of grip they offer. I just wish they were a bit quieter...

Before those I tried the Yokohama AVS-i's, and wore them out in under 6000 miles. Yup, I had some alignment "toe" issues.

If you like the old D60A2 Dunlops, you might want to look into the Sport A2's they replaced them with. I'm hearing good things about them, and I was VERY happy with the D60A2s that were on the Accord when I bought it, as well as the ones I've used on various Civics and CRXs over the last few years.

Interestingly, my wagon came with 15" steel wheels, and the stock tire size was 205/60-15. Maybe the Azenis are available in that size?

nope, as stated in the earlier posts, Azenis only come in 205/50/15 for 15" rims.

FWD drifting??

In drifting you want the greasy-est, tallest profile most bald tire you can find...like out the dumpster behind Pepboys.
