You are missing out. My car was downright scary when it was new at speeds, the RE11 made it a lot easier to drive. I put mine on at 600 miles

I'm thinkin' of going with HANKOOK for my next set, lookin at a savingz of 400 bucks versus going to stock Bridgestone from Discount Tire for 1300 with TMPS rebuild kit.....but I do like the stock ride....not sure if Hankook is a rougher ride or not?

Toyo T1Rs - next will be the NT05s

AllForTheCash · 10-14-2010, 08:44 PM

You forgot Michelin PS2.

You don't need to rebuild your TPMS, car is too new. The ride on the V12s are good, more quiet than stock, but I am not a fan of its grip/feel.

hmm.. i have toyo t1r....
it came with the rims when i bought them second hand

JerWA · 10-15-2010, 05:10 AM

On the tail end of the stockers now, but none of the miles were mine so I don't have a good impression. All I know is trying to launch the car is fun but not very productive, as is trying to hit WOT before 2nd gear. And that's in the dry.

Currently waffling on a resize. My American-Car habits make me want more tire, regardless of what it's actually accomplishing lol. But I don't think I have enough miles left on the tires to save up enough $ for wheels, limiting my resize options.

What's a good all around tire (rains here a lot, so they can't turn into death trap slicks in the wet but I'm not looking to do any rain racing either so it's not a huge deal) in a slightly wider than stock tire size on the stock sport wheels? I think I remember reading about a 265/285 split or something like that?

I wasn't sure if it was something you have to do everytime you change tires...much appreciated

I put Michelin Pilot Sport A/S Plus on my car.

Yokohama Advan Neova AD-08, a true dual purpose track and street tire. Running them at Road America this weekend.

I had them on my recently traded 370 coupe. An excellent tire with a high mileage rating. They were also quieter and didn't pick up sand/rocks as readily as the stock Yokohama's. The 275's fit perfect on the stock 18" rear rims and 245's on the front.
