Default Tire Info Database (searched)

Hey, ive already done multiple searches lookin for treadlife, treadwear, tire life etc etc, and nothing came up, so, i thought this would be a good thread for people to post what kinds of tires they have, and how many miles/months they got out of them.

Lets begin with Kumho Ecsta 712's = poop

Treadwear rating is 280 AA-A

Reality:

Dry: good
Wet: sux0rs
Snow: couldn't move 2 feet
Traction: good
Turning: excellent

I really want to know about those new Proxy 4's, and hankook HRII's or whatever, i want some tires with "decent" traction, but good treadlife, my car is mainly a daily driver, but it will see the strip, and does see street races. the ecsta's have done so-so, but i want something that had a better treadwear pattern, and lasts alot longer (340+)

negative, they have corporate #'s, i want people experiences with racing, street racing, daily driving etc etc... i have also read carreview.com reviews and reviews from other sites, but they are a bunch of RWD camaro drivers. i want daily driven honda, fwd, light weight, low sitting cars to post their experiences with tires.

Tire rack does not have just "corporate numbers". They have real world tire reviews and tire test data. A tire is a tire whether its on a camaro or a yugo.
