I think I'm about to do a 5-lug conversion, and I'm shopping for tires. Right now I'm favoring the Yokohama AVS dB's. I will never drive in snow. Does anyone have any experience with these? The price is right, but how's the handling? What about tread life? Any input is appreciated.

Tread life can be found in the specs on the sidewall. Its usually one of the things they list when you shop online for tires as well.

Higher that number, the longer the life.

i think i have avs's on my fc, they are great, quiet and they have good grip. i dunno about wet, they havent been yet.

At one site it had 130, but what's it out of? I need a basis.

I think treadlife on my kuhmos is 300. In comparison, most R compounds have a 50 treadwear rating.

i think i'm just gonna order nitto 555r's for my rear tires.... kumho's are not nearly sticky enough!

damn...I just want some nice daily drivers that can handle corners...I can never get a consensus...or are there many good brands that will suit my needs?

u best have them for sunday

there many good tires. kumho's are good for a normal power car............ my car just has too much power https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png
