That's exactly why i bought em, awesome tires, but dirt cheap for a 20 inch tire, and i know im going to wear them out with my drop.

I have had experience with Wanli and the Sumi tires. If I were you I would go with the Wanli tires.
The Sumi will bubble as soon as you hit your first pothole.

I haven't had any problems from my nittos. They seem like a pretty good rubber so far.(knock on wood)

So about $600 for Wanli or $800 for Falken azenis. These tires are only going to be used from about April or May until September or october. Hmm...what do people think?
