omg the tired i just got are amazing, im sure the previously mentioned ones are as well, but my Falken Azenis Sports, 215/45/16 are incredible. Granted they are gonna be bald after a week when the weather gets better cuz they are super soft, they grip amazingly. Were talking like axle breakin grippin lol. hope that wasnt too off topic i just got em and had to rave about em

I have the Kuhmo ASX. I'm not saying they're the best, but for me, they're perfect as I don't race my car and they handle just as well in the wet as they do when it's dry. They also grip decently when I need them to which isn't very often.

The Vulcan tires I think are better than the Yokos because my dad's Evo RS comes stock with the Yokos and they are talking about these new tires comming out.

They are a very good set of tires. For the prices, they are amazing. However, th ebiggest problem with Falken is its inventory/service. It sucks. If you have a flat a few month after production ended, you are screwed, you won't be able to find a replacement tire.

People, when you talk about tires, please mention brand+MODEL. Saying michelin is better than X is quite a generalisation. Saying Yokohamas are bad or good tires is too vague, they make good and bad tires depending on user and expectations.

Ok i didnt say these tires are the best in every condition!! these tires are great in wet and dry and good in snow, there ONE of the best all season tires availabile today for the price!!


Ok i would like to retract yet another statement, "these tires suck in snow" this is the first winter they were put out, and they were said to handle good in the snow, not so much i just reciently found out, good in slush though!!! but these have to be one of the best wet and dry traction tires for the price. michelins have some of the best snow tires to buy, good luck with what ever tires you have and drive safe, DONT WANT TO SEE ANYMORE CRASHED TIBS!!!!!! hope all ur tibs make it though winter alive and well!!

bringing the dead back to life....

i just got a pair of parada spec 2's and i think they are great! ive been through several kuhmo 712's which would have to be my #2 tire now. i chirp the 712's from a dead stop quite frequently and i havent done so with the paradas, yet. also i can definately notice more grip, and the 712's treadwear is 270 and the paradas are 300. so they should last a tad longer, ive also had a pair of falkens, and i dont like them very much at all....

ya, as long as we are bringing this up, i made a mistake early on saying that Yokahmas are the best tires ever, i meant to say they are the second best next to Pirreli.

Then again, Toyo makes some very good street tires (t1-s). Pirelli doesn't make any good tires in 15in anymore.

But I never use 'em in snow, gotta have true winter tires for that.
