Im going to order 2 sets of rears of some cheap tires and see how they turn out. I cant afford to replace tires every 15k lol

I just bought some Hankook Ventus V12 Evo's from the tirerack for $108 each!
255-40-17 and they placed 2nd in that tire test vs. the PS2.
I LOVE the PS2's, but I went thru two sets in less than 10K miles.

Yeah I hear good things about the Hankook but I always get so worried when I see tires for that cheap. Are they really that good?

Gramma_Benz

Yea, I've been krunning these on my fronts now for a while. For some reason, my rears wear out a lot faster???

The rear continentals on mine are worn out right now after only 16k but the front ones look really good. I think it's because of the RWD that they wear out quicker.

Sorry, I was making a joke.

lol i think 360wtq probably has something to do with that.

Michelin ps2's for the best of the best street tire and hankook evo 12 for best value.

I didn't know Riken was part of Michelin.
FYI- I had some Federal 595's. They stuck good, and were on their way to lasting longer than most tires I've had, but they HOWLED.
I thought my differential was going out, and I only had 2 in the front,
but the noise sounded like it was coming from the back.
I took them off the car. But if you don't mind the noise, and want a good wearing, sticky tire for really cheap, you might consider these.
224-45-17 was only like 85 including shippig each. They tracked much better than the Firestones I have now.

Looking back, they rode well, drove well, grabbed the road, good traction wet and dry, no trammeling, wore down slowly (I still have like 7/32 left on them after a year) , it was just that horrible noise, like you car was on it's last leg.
If you don't mind the noise, and know that hey, it's just the tire, they're very good for the money, but they should come
with a warning. I was afraid the drive the car, thought my diff or tranny was going to explode, or that I had bad wheel bearings.
I can't imagine what it would've sounded like with them on all 4.
But in hindsight, I almost wish I'd just bought 2 more, instead of 4 Firestones, they should call them Flintstones, they're hard as a rock.
