Mark Posted June 25, 2003 Posted June 25, 2003 I have Yokohama A550V tires. They're great for summer, but as soon as it snows... hold on! I'm wondering if anyone has found some great all season tires, around $150 or less with little road noise, rated to 120MPH and good grip? size is 225x55x16
AWJ Posted June 25, 2003 Posted June 25, 2003 Goodyear aquatreads are decent. Some swear by blizzaks for the winter season. I just don't drive in the snow - or use the beater.
91CRXsiR Posted June 26, 2003 Posted June 26, 2003 Kumho ESCTA SUPRA 712 - i've heard only good things great dry / good wet / good wear and great price. what more could you ask for!?
AWJ Posted June 26, 2003 Posted June 26, 2003 I have those on both my cars. They are not too bad in mild rain on a honda. On the beast, they slip like the dickens on any moisture. Heavy rain - not so great. They slip like grease in the snow. They are great price and do perform great on dry road. Little noisy but - I don't care about that.
91CRXsiR Posted June 26, 2003 Posted June 26, 2003 i've never gotten any feedback from honda owners on this tire its all from 240 guys... its crap on ice though... never thought about the weight of the car being so different.
AWJ Posted June 26, 2003 Posted June 26, 2003 I also have 400 ft lbs of torque. So that helps to break loose on a slightly wet, really wet, or completely dry - road.
91CRXsiR Posted June 26, 2003 Posted June 26, 2003 your making that kind of power w/ that setup? wow are you running the stock motor? ( i still haven't gotten all the lingo down yet 1jz 2jz etc etc. )
