I know that some of you guys out there do autocross and go to the track. When you do those things it wear your tires out, so you have to replace them. Well Im just wondering what kind of tires do you have on your automobile.

My cousin just bought new Toyo T1-S for his 350Z. He say it feels way better than the OEM tires. More grip.

So what tires do you guys use?
 
I'm going to try some Yokohama ES100s whenever I get my damn wheels!

Then I'm going to try the Azenies, then MX, then some of the KDWs or whatever Rob is shoving down my throat.

26mm 35 shore proline radials... on my RC nitro 4 tec :dopey: (dont have a car)

Bah Proline!!! Not race tires :p

I'm on 24mm Take Offs for racing (slicks) and 26mm HPI X-Patterns (the same as the Yokohama tires on Exiges) for the street. Mostly pretty stiff insterts on all sets.

BTW this is all on my Yokomo MR4TC Barry Baker Edition

Falken GR-B. I haven't really driven on them, as the car came right from Autobacs' shop for installation and right to my normal shop for other work.
 
Hiya! :D :O :lol:

I am using Yokohama Avid V4. When my parents bought a 4th gen Camaro Z28 for me, it was already placed on along with other new things into the car before the person put it on sale! RollAzn, I thank you for putting this topic up as now I see why people at my school think that I got a lucky deal off the person who sold the car to my parents. There are others too as my parents have all of the receipts of everything done to the car before they put it on sale at blue book price! I just didnt understand how good my wheels are until you made this topic. Then I went to yokohama site and notice its performance. *sign* just need to wait till I start my first auto class this senior year and now I wont have to be so behind about understanding cars! :O :O
 
Firestone Destination LE's in a P255/70R16. They were decently cheap and I'm pretty poor so it works out. For now I don't need a performance tire.
 
Thats right kids. It's the Cack Disel, or whatever the hell he calls it.

Go read my response and laugh (and then cry when you realize the truth) in the Lexus thread.
 
On the Suburban: Firestone Wilderness
On the Buick: Pep Boys Futuras

The Buick's tires are pretty worn out, but I've managed to talk Dad into a new set of good old fashioned Goodyear Eagles! (without the whitewalls, thank god :lol: )
 
The 330i ZHP came with Bridgestone RE040s. 225/40-18 front, 255/35-18 rear. The wheels look like they could take 245/35s and 265/30s... they're huge.

I've got 700ish miles on the car so far and I'm pretty impressed with the 040s. I believe they are OE on the 350Z and G35 coupe and I remember liking them a lot on those cars as well.

i have some company called lemans on my car, and it sucks, dont ever get them. i used to have firestone firehawk tires, and those were way better, both with same rating.
 
15" Pirelli 6000s ... no idea if they are any good, they came in good shape with the Alfa 155 I bought last week. :D
 
18" Nitto 555 R Xtremes. So far very impressive even in the rain! Considering these are street legal tires.
 
315/35/17 Nitto N555R drag radials. Impressive on the street. Dissappointing on the track.
 
i have some sort of michelin's on my 97 grand am. i will need new ones probably in a week(one keeps deflating in 2 weeks time) and another set in a month(snow)
