I'm getting new tires on my '14 this weekend as I'm getting tired of my nice “vibrating” car. I would like a really good pair of tires that stick but will last (hopefully those two criteria aren't mutually exclusive).
Also, since I will not be AX-ing my new tires, I will also be in the market for a new set of rims which I will also need tires for. If I remember correctly, the sizes I need (rims) are 16x7 and 16x8. However, I don’t know the offset. Maybe SirAndy can help me out on that. I would really like another set of what I already have (Fukes-sp.) but am not sure my budget will support those. If anyone has some rims for sale that are affordable, I’m open to options… (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) |

I think it will depend on what size you want to go with. Kuhmo has just released their new Ecsta SPT in a 195/55/15 and a 205/50/15. The Kuhmo 712 Supra is a good cheap tire. Yokohama ES 100 is a decent tire. Bridgestone S-03 is an awesome tire, but expensive. Bridgestone RE750 is a decent tire. I have driven both and they are much better than Bridgestones of the past. I love the Falken Azenis Sport RT 615, but its not going to last much more than 15,000 miles of street driving.
