What do you guys recommend for tires?

What do you guys recommend for me.... I need something that obviously has good wet and dry traction, but lasts a long time because i drive 300+ miles a week. Also, i run -1.5 degrees of camber all the way around...

I need something fairly cheap, not General Exclaim UHP cheap though!

I have 452's now and they were good tires. I got them with 8K miles on them and they lasted me a year and 3 months so far, but are pretty shot since i drive them hard. So they got a good 25K out of the tires.


Im torn between a few tires... wanted your opinions!

I checked tire rack and all of those tires have good reviews, but i wanted some opinions form you guys.

Ive heard from people that the UHP's were just cheap tires and weren't all that good.

I run 452's on front and exclaims on rear simply because I go through rear tires so quickly the UHP's arent bad but if cost was of no concern 452's front and rear

Potenza 760 sports best tire from experience and by reading and doing the research I would highly recommend them to anyone. I hate nitto's and the bfg kdw is a nice truck tire.

thats crazy bryce, i pull 2.0's on the BFG's i run but from your choices, i would go with yoko's, then falken's, then Ventus (althought i have heard some very good things about the v12's). If you do go nitto look into Invo's
