Ok i'm a 16 year old and i am on a pretty tight budget for some tires on the rims this summer. I am looking for something a little less costly but will also give me a decent performance. Someone in a chat said handcook or handcock tires are pretty decent. I also want something low profile to make the rim stick out a little bit more. Any ideas. I'm trying hard to stay under about $75 a tire....

 

I picked up a set of Wanli 215-45-17 for $232 new

 

Wanli? never heard of those ones....any complaints about them? and will they last me through the whole summer...i had on some daytonas on my stock rims this past summer and i went thru the 2 front ones within like 9000 miles...and i'm not the kind of person who peels out cuz i know front wheel cars shouldnt do that...

 

well i just got them put on & they ride like air.
great traction. good in rain & snow. low noise, low cost.

for the price u just cant beat it

 

what size tires are you looking for bro--defintitely effects the cost per tire. and FYI its Hankook

 

This is the guy i got mine from.

got tires in 3 days

I'm not exactly positive what size i need...the rims are 16" and they are going onto a 94 ex...all those numbers for tires run around in my head with no meaning to me really...maybe one day i will figure it out

i'd just like to say that you get what you pay for with tires....this was a hard lesson i learned the hard way...

Great point..pay a little more now and you will stick a whole lock better later..

 

NTM usually when you pay more the tire usually lasts longer. But that has been my opinion. Right now I have had my yoko yk420s on for about 6 months and hardly any tire wear, now keep in mind that these are all season tires but I only paid 300 for everything installed mounted balanced plus certs from discount tire (plus i know the guy). Is your car lowered? A good all around size for a lowered car on 16's in an accord is 205-215/45-50/16
