What kind of tires should I get?

Barrfight · 07-09-2002, 02:12 AM

OK, I need some tires that will see mostly street racing and daily driving. Does anyone have any ideas/suggestions from past experiences. I want something that will hook fairly well, but not wear out after a month. thanks!

I like my Nittos i have for the street, they are 275-40-17. On the street they hook better than you would think. Have had them for over a year and still have tread on them. Now, they suck ballz in ANY bad weather and at the track. They suck at the track because i do not think they have enough sidewall to allow a good hook. But on the street they are mean.

I personally like the toyo proxie TS-1s.. good for wet and dry, and a hard *** sidewall to keep the tires stiff on turns and a sticky tread that keeps contact....
