what are the best tires for handling and drag together? like all in one except Azenies. are the Ao32's good for drag? i heard they wear out VERY VERY fast.

 

For handling and wet performance you can't go wrong with SO-3s. This comes at a price of longevity and cost. I never dragged them though, sorry.

 

my friend didn't get more then 5 months out of his azenies, (on a bone stock civic)
I just ordered a set of yokokama AVS ES 100's after a lot og searching, them seem to be a very popular all around tire in the 100 bucks a piece range

 

I have BFG KD's. They're OK. The sqeal loud around corner's though.

which ones are the SO-3's again?

they are made by Potenza, they are great tires and are probably what you are looking for...

I seriously doubt hes "bone stock"... Ive had these tires before... I put 25k miles on them, AND I dragrace. They stick absolutly wonderful for a street tire.

In 5 months I put 18k miles on em. They are good tires. But now I have Dunlop SP sport FM901s... and they are GREAT!!! And I can drive in the rain w/ these!

They're made by bridgestone. Potenza is just a series of tire that they have, like potenza re92, so3, etc.

Its a bone stock DX with an automatice tranny, he drives the car as hard as he can and cooked the tires in one summer, I am not saying they are bad, he loved then like none other

 

I can say the Yokohama AVS ES100 tire is a great tire. at the track it worked wonderfully and on the street it handles very well.
