A local shop is having a sale on rubbers. Which of these would be the best/stickiest tire.
Probably going with 225/45/17 Choices are: Kumho Escta 711, 712, SPT, MX (summers) Escta ASX, AST (HP all seasons) Anyone have any personal experience? |

Toyo Proxes T1-R tires here. Why cheap out on the 1 thing that keeps you in contact with the road?? If you can affort to swap to a 3S with more power you also need a good set of tyres in the balance.
Driven with the Toyo's for about 11000 km's (of which 7000 with the GTE), about 30-40% tyre wear. Superb traction on dry, ok/good traction in the wet (just balance your foot). Cornering is just amazing with these. This post has been edited by Kadett: Jan 18, 2007 - 1:01 PM -------------------- JDM Powerplant installed, BPU coming very soon!
