what brand and style tire are YOU using?, lets compare notes Options

[presure2]

hey all,
looking @ buying a new set of sneakers (tires..lol) for the car, and, im thinking about trying a diffrent tire than what i have been.
I've been using Falken ZIEX 502's then 512's, since i got aftermarket rims..with decent results. for ~89$ a tire, they were ok.
however, once they get some miles on them, they are aweful in the rain. the car hydroplanes all over the place.
and with the extra power of the 5sfte, traction is DEFINETLY an issue, ANY time i get on it in 1st or 2nd.
so, im wondering what all you guys are using for tires, especially you swapped guys!
brand, style, size, list it all!
if you just bought them with the rims, that dont count.
how many miles you get out of a set would be good if you know that as well.
i get about 20-25k out of a set of the falkens.
TIA

Im BFgoodrich KDW 2's and i love them. Their a little bit of a more costly tire but the traction is excellent. Those tires come stock on all SRT-4's, FYI. So i would think they have good grip since the SRT-4 has some good hp numbers.

ive never tried those, but thats the set i would really like to try out next. i think they come stock with srt4s and STIs, so thats got to tell you something good.


ive been having some pretty good luck with my kumho asx (belive it or not). they seem to have great traction in 225-45-17s and have a better wear rating then the falkens you are on now.
