Well, finally have some money for tires. I'm still debating on which ones to get though.. these are all in the same price range, maybe $20-$30 apart, so please help me choose.

This is a weekend car/special occasion car, never driven in the rain, unless caught in it unexpectedly, so I don't really need tires that have good traction in the rain but it is a plus.. The car stays in for the winter and is never taken out, warmed up occasionally but never driven so I don't need winter tires, so basically what I am looking for are good tires that have good traction for cornerning and good treadwear.. so help me choose.



245/35/18 Falken Grb Fk451 $161

245/35/18 Toyo Proxes T1s $172

245/35/18 Pirelli Pzero Rosso $226


275/35/18 Falken Grb Fk451 $191

275/35/18 Toyo Proxes T1s $197

275/35/18 Pirelli Pzero Rosso $262



These are the only three that they have in stock with both the 245 & 275 sizes.. there are others, but I want the same tires all around.

You can also tell me what you think of the price. Thanks

nevermind, i purchased the toyo t1-r, supposedly the new and improved t1-s as they are now discontinued.. you may still want to keep this thread open for discussion.. for other people who are interested..

I have the BFG T/A KDW-2. These things handle and grip! They were great during the winter rain we got in So Cal, not a hint of hydroplaning and they stopped very well in the wet. In the dry...who-wee. A bit on the noisey side but given the performance I have about 10K miles on them and just now the negative camber wear is starting to show up.

I'd buy again.

I've never really used toyo tires so i cant really say anything.

Heck yeah, i am running those all around, greatness.

Workaholic, just checking - were you able to use the ClubLexus link when you placed your order?

newyorksc

DaveGS4- Which link are you talking about? I'm not sure. I ordered them through tiresavings.com.

I called up tirerack and asked them "why don't you guys sell toyo tires" and they said "You get what you pay for and there is a reason why we don't carry Toyo...I will leave it at that"...

Not sure if your talking about the tire Rack link, But I ordered tires a couple of days ago, and it worked.
I just made sure I reference (Brandon Ext 287) so clublexus get credit.
