I've been looking at a new set of tires, but what should i get. Are the ES100's worth the additional 15 bucks a pop over the 712's?
|
i have had both and i dodnt really notice much of a difference...i have just stuck with the 712's!
|
what are you going to use them for?
|
General street use with an occasional trip to the road course.
|
get the es100. If you want kumho get MX or don't bother.
Or you can look at falken azensis sport, not sure what tire size you are looking for though |
Oh that brings another thing up. I was probably gonna run stock size 225/55/16's But would 55's have too much sidewall height for road racing?
|
Get the 712's i dont care what people think, i have 712's on the back of my car and it hooks up real nice. Now i have a 245/40/17 which comes in the softer rubber compund so i dont know if your size would be the same compound as mine. But for the front i would recomend a dunlop fm901 i thinks it's one of the better handleing tires that are cheaper.

If you want a nice upgrade, 225/50/16s are what came stock on the third gens and are what I run on my TII now. |
Err, well i meant stock for my wheels, i'm sorry. I have 16x7. So i was wondering if i could run 50's on wheels or would it mess with my speedo and stuff too much?

They will fit the stock wheels too. I think 245s are the largest you can cram on a 7" wide wheel. |
