So, my tire finally gave up on me yesterday, apparently it was a little overused (inner tire wear, I'm lowered and haven't done alignment), could see the white lines after I removed the tire. Now my question is, which tire brand should I go with that's between 6-700 including labor and tax and that's got good grip? I run the mountains a lot but only have 700 cash so any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

 

Hankook V12's are the best bang for your buck. Was it your front tire that was done? If it is, get the toe adjusted. The stock toe alignment is pretty aggressive and will wear through your new sets quick.

 

For best bang of the buck, Ultra high performance all season Continental DWS with 50,000 miles treadlife warranty, very comfortable and quiet, handling is good but not great, price is very reasonable (right on your budget as well), traction is great dry, wet, and even small snow. It has tons of good reviews on tirerack.

For pure performance in the summer only though,the Michelin Pilot Super Sport is second to none.

 

I love my BFG KDW IIs; and since they're symetrical, you can dismount them and flip them...since you are lowered with toe/camber issues, this will allow you to extend the tire life.


The EVO 12s you can do the same as well.

 

I can't use the tire, it popped on me. I'm just gonna go with Nitto Motivos.

 

so I ended up just getting Nitto Motivos

 

Did you get your KDWs in the 255/18 size for the rears? Discount Tire says they don't have them that big
