I am looking at getting new tires, i have the stock 17 inch rim.
I don't want to spend over 160 a tire. I was looking on tirerack and heres what i found for options. I also want a good treadwear, even at the cost of traction.

BFGoodrich g-Force Sport 111/tire
BFGoodrich g-Force T/A KDW 159/tire
Bridgestone Potenza RE750 156/tire
BFGoodrich g-Force T/A KDWS 131/tire although i don't plan on driving it in the snow.
Kumho Ecsta ASX 98/tire

Does anyone know any other websites to get tires cheaper, also do u have any recomendations for good tires that have a good treadwear rating prefferably 300+ and at a good price.
Thanks guys
John

I just got the BF G-Force Sports from www.tires.com for $469. They shipped very quick too.

Talk to Jay I think his ext was 426, not 100% sure. And if you do talk to him mention my name Travis Hall he will look it up and see what kind of deal he gave me.

So Far I have no complants about this tire. They do everything I want, hang the corners and accelerate hard off the line. And they have 340 tread life rating so they should last longer than the Gatorbacks.

:nice:
 
i got some kuhmo ecsta supra 712s earlier this year for ~480. treaad looks good so far and handles much better than the factory goodyears. the biggest improvment was in the rain. im not scared to drive in the rain anymore :rlaugh: i got 275/40/17s all around (b/c im cheap and i can still rotate them) no scraping at all, but a little tire bulge on the stock wheel. looks good IMO tho.
