Need Tires
Car Only has 5700 Miles and my rear tire needs to be replaced from side puncture damage and a front tire has a bubble.
Thinking on replacing the OEM continentals.
Want to stay with 18s, how wide can I / should I go?
What brand/model do you guys recommend.
Thanx

I dunno, I had the General Exclaims first they were cheap and lasted about as long as the Yoko S Drives I had next. Today I got some Bridgestone Potenza RE760 Sports. We will see how they hold up.

I had Falken FK 452's first with 19's and they were ok. I only drove them for 6k miles before i sold them but they were kind of loud. Switched to Yokohama ADVAN S.4. on 17's for the winter and they have been real quiet and comfortable. In a couple weeks I will be trying Hankook Ventus V12 Evo K110 on 19's. Haven't heard anything negative about them yet.

I use Michelin Pilot Sport PS2's. They have good ratings and are really good in cornering. I have info for 17'' http://www.michelinman.com/tire-sele...Y/tire-details They tend to be more expensive and wear down faster than other tires, but I still like them for the performance.

I have had several tires on my car. My quick take
Michelin Pilot Sport- No complaints besides cost.
Goodyear GS D3- awesome performance in the rain. Wore fairly quickly
General Exclaim- Cheap. Road noise grows as miles gain.
Goodyear Eagle AS- Super road noise after you put about 7k miles on them.
I am getting a new set of Hankook v12 k110 next week. Super cheap and reviews are great.
