PostSubject: Looking for new tires for my TL   Wed Sep 03, 2008 3:32 pm

Not that the stockies are killing itself and running through it's tread...
Just that I wanna go something wider with the OEM wheels.

Thinking of either going 245/45/17 or 255/45/17 all around.

But not sure which tires I should get?
I got a set of winters, Bridgestone Blizzak WS-60 235/45/17...
So I don't really need to worry about running the same tires in the winter. I could get All Seasons but since I got winter tires I don't feel the need to get All Seasons...

Anyone got any suggestions for some Perfomance Summer road tires?

Or should I just run the stock Potenza's until I get new wheels?

What I have in mind are Pirelli PZeros, Bridgestone RE760, ...
Dunno what are your opinions on those?

Blizzak WS-60's are awesome tires for snow, they just plow up westwood plateau!

I would recommend something high performance, but not ULTRA high performance as you won't be taking your car to go autox or track everyday. Plus wear is going to be better.

If you just like wide, and decent performance, you might even look at the Kumho MX line. Cheap for what you get out of it.

RE001s are best value for money. I used RE050As and I loved them
fave tires ever are Falken 452's.
DZ101's are tyres people either love or hate. I'm giving them a go in the next week.

RE001's? I've never looked into that. Maybe I should go look at some reviews.

But I've seen some very nice feedback from RE760's on Acurazine.com.
I've seen some good feedback on Falken 452's also.

I'm going wide, not necessarily only for looks. But for performance only. I want more rubber hitting the ground. Currently I'm running on the stock sizes Potenza 235/45/17.

dial in more neg and put on more tire =p
I prefer the RE050 or 070's over the 001s but for the price they are good value.
I was also contemplating the Yokohama S drives.
The 452s are amazing. But a little pricey here in Aus. Not too sure about their price in Canada.
If only they came in my size T.T..

But for his heavy ass car. Re010-r is not really suggested for him. He should get the Dunlop Z1 Star Spec

I'm gonna look for some feedback on Acurazine and see if they fit what I like.
I will listen to Mr. VRT for now. Laughing

Actually, it's the safety. All-seasons, with the exception of higher performance once are NOT enough for this weather. Be cocky all you want, but safety 1st.
