First question: What do you intend to do? Autocross, drag or both?

#2: what is your budget?

#3: How long do you want them to last?



I have Nitto's on the GFH. I have a decent set of Comp TA's on stock bolagna cutters for cheap if someone wants them

Kuhmo 712's are a good performance tire for the money.

If you like autoX, get some Falken Azenis. Bitchin' tires for the cash.

i got bridgestone potenza 730's for a good price... after the worn dunlops i had they grip extremely well.. are great in the rain and are very pedictable when they do slide. i do think that some other higher priced tires may have moreabsolute grip but who wants to pay for potenza s-03's or pilot sports
