I have Falken Azenis RT-615s and they rock as a summer tire. BUT i only got them because i couldnt afford the Bridgestone Potenza RE01R or the Yokohama Adavans.

Seriously used wheels with winter tires can be picked up for less than a set of allseason tires.

 

You should try these tires, Dunlop Direzza Sport Z1 Star Spec. In 17" size the price is not bad, kinda close to Azenis price, but better in performance. Tire Rack is good to buy from, but if you live in SoCal, try City Tire Online. You can pick up the tires and pay cash for a lot less than tire rack prices. IMHO Dunlop Z1>B-Stone RE01-R>Falken RT-615. Auto Cross times will tell you the same thing.

I'm happy with these.

Thanks for all your input and feed back. However i have narrowed my searches down to 2 brands of tire.

1.) Yokohama avid 4s($104.00) per tire

2.) Pirelli Pzero Nero M & S ($143.00) per tire

Both of these tires are Ultra high performance all season (speed ratingW) but i wanted to see if anyone had any experience with them on their car. how is the Braking/ handling, steering response, wet/dry/ice/snow grip and overall tread wear.

please post suggestions or input soon as my tires are my car now are completely bald!!

 

^^^^^^^ I had both of them beforeand thats what I used for winter tires....Yok avid and Pzero nero are pretty close in comparison except Pzero nero handle little better in dry but tend to wear faster.......

 

DUDE NO BETTER TIRE THAN BFG G-FORCE KDW2!!!! yes i meant to do it all in caps cause he really needs to get them they rule the world!!!

 

Direzza Sport Z1 Star Spec ftw.Dunlop Direzza Sport Z1 Star Spec Blackwall

i used to own p6 pirelli but i when i slapped a pair on of these before my car accident, man it was bliss, never had a chance to try them in the rain though

 

i HIGHLY recomend the NItto NT555's .... wow... great tire... better than all the dunlops i've try'd


and i'm about to get the Invo's.... i'll write as review after some millage has been put on

 

^^^ Have you tried Dunlop Direzza Sport Z1 Star Spec? I beat you knew they run wider than any other street tire. Even though it says 245 on the tire, they are a little bit wider than other brands of that same size. Also this is the new favorite tire in Autocross because it grips good and you can get more tire for the size. Also they are the #1 tire in Autocross right now.
