I ate the oem tires (225/50 and 245/45) Re050 and replace it with Toyo T1R 235/50 and 255/45. Now my rear's are out and wondering which ones to buy:

1. Bridgestone 050A oem.
2. Same Toyo T1R in over size.
3. Falken FK452 225/45 and 245/45.
4. Goodyears F1 GS D3.
5. yokohama advan sport.

Some people talk here about nankang, what tire is that??
Suggestions please.

Thanks

 

are you looking for tread life, or performance, ride noise/comfort, price point.

what do you want out of a tire, that will help people make better recommendations

 

Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric - new version of the GSD3s, and even better.

BTW, there are several threads on this, try searching in this sub-forum for 'tires'.

 

Those are the best in the upper pricerange.

A cheaper alternative (about $350 cheaper) and probably what I'm going to buy are Sumitomo HTR Z III. They have great reviews at tirerack.

 

Some balance between performance and ride.
Toyos are good but they do not turn as quick as the 050A so I need good performance first.

 

the OEM tires are plenty sticky and hold the road great in my personal experience, but man do they wear out quick.... I'd try out the falkons even though i hear they wear out quicker than what they are rated...

 

You get what you paid for when it comes to tires from my experience.

 

check out the Kumhos....

 

Vredestein ULTRAC SESSANTA

They have had nothing but good reviews and lots of G drivers have been getting them and the prices are great. I am thinking about ordered there all seasons which I have heard are good also.
