Need new tires. Any suggestions?
 

Ok. So I need two new tires. My rear ones... My front ones are good. Before I forget, should my two new tires go on the front or back? Im guessing back because my G is RWD. I have stock 18's. I am on a pretty tight budget right now. I cant spend more than 200 a tire. I want tires that have a lot of grip and perform well in warm weather and in the rain. Snow isnt an issue because Im taking my car to Florida for college. So yeah Any suggestions?

Hankook v12 evo
Yokohama s-drive
kumho ecsta

are decent choices...
I got the Hankooks

I got Firestone via Tirerack that I'm very happy with at a great price

Might also want to check craigslist in your area, as you can frequently find deals on good tires with little/no wear on them. When searching, just enter in the numbers for the size you're looking for. (245 45 18)

You should decide how much tire wear vs traction you want. Go for summer tires, somewhere between summer and extreme performance. Every tier up basically better grip, worse lifetime. Tire rack has great tests, find one in the category you want that has good wet traction.
Put tires with more traction on rear. Usually its the new tires. But if you have some baller old tires leave them on the rear.

i went with yokohama's recently - very satisfied.

plus they had a special ,buy 3, get one free and a Ravens jersey. win-win for me.

Nankangs are pretty affordable too, or go on discount tire site. they ship for free

I usually try to buy a used set on car forums or craigslist.

General G-MAX AS-03, seems to be a good choice.

For a pretty good summer performance option I'd look into Hankook Ventus V12s. Very affordable for their performance.

My tire installer has this super fancy tire balancer that can detect "runout", which he says is a direct link to tire quality. He recommended 3 brands, Michelin and Continental (both pricy) as well as Kuhmo (much more reasonable). I got 2 Kuhmo Ecsta 4X tires from tirerack for about $300 installed.

I went to sullivan tire and they recommended Goodyear Eagle GT's. Seems to be pretty good.

I recommend Kumho Ecsta's... just got 4 new ones put on last weekend. Went with the new Kumho Ecsta 4x's, apparently a slightly different tire than the older ASX's (which are still available.) Very reasonable in cost, pretty quiet and grippy tire.

He's probably using a Hunter Road Force balancing machine. Definitely a great piece of equipment.

I put Eagle GTs on mine back in '06 when they were re-introduced. The size was a bit of a compromise but the handling and traction were very good. They got noisy after 20k and needed to be replaced after 25-30k miles.
Recently got Continental DWS for both the G35 and M35x. Those suit the M35x very well but a more sporty tire would be better suited for the G35.
As a side note, the M35x came to me with Hankooks on it and they were not satisfying. They would have been even less amusing on the G35.
