im also waiting on a $850 check to come up from these douche bag kids who through a rock at my hood 2 months ago. but ive got michelin pilot exalto a/s they are complete garbage for traction but have 400 treadlife. my next set i want straight traction i dont care if they have a 100 treadlife. shit since its not going to be rainy season soon i might get a set of street radials.

ya i had nitto nt 555 radials on my other car and those bitches were awesome. i think im gunna go kumho ecsta spt. cheap tire. 320 tread life which aint bad and 215 so a little more contact patch over the stock
205'. they fit on stock size wheels right?

what kind of car did you have last? yeah from what i hear the 215 is the biggest you can go on stock rim. I definitely want some kind of street radial next

honda civic si. had cams, headers, cat back, cam gears, skunk 2 intake manifold, skunk 2 short shifter, undrive crank pulley, and tokico coilovers. dont remember any more. and it beat a 5.0. (only one i raced). so it was pretty quick. it was only hair slower if at all to the srt. and those tires stuck awesome. still got them. but im selling the rims and tires right now. damn 4 lug's.

ok so i was looking into tires today and i really like the nitto neo-gens but the closest to the stock tire size is either 205 40 17 or 215 45 17. which would fit better?

get some fuckin rims (17/8) baby get good contact with the road and the 215's should be good im my opinion

no money for rims =(

i was just reading through the tires thread and some guy actually asked should he get the nitto neo-gens or the Kumho Esta SPT and every single person said the Kumho Esta SPT so i might look into those now

Slow4D00R · 10-07-2008, 10:57 PM

anyone know of a red supercharged gto around here?

bloodredsrt4 · 10-07-2008, 11:50 PM

thanks on the complements guys.... and deff buy wheels guy... good traction just isnt possible on a 6" wide rim... keep the tires u have now save ur money and buy a good wheel and tire combo... u can find a nice set of 17x8s with tires for around 800-1000.... if u want traction u gotta pay

yep those r the ones i want. at the end of the month they are going on. there a cheap tire with a decent treadwear (320) and kumho aint a bad brand. you gotta think about a srt burning through those bad boys to. more horseepower = more wheel spin = rapid tread decline. i know those nittos arent cheap. i had the nitto nt 555's and for a set of 4 they were 600 bucks.
