oooo...pilot sports! i wish i could afford those. tell me how you like them, they come stock on really high end cars but im curious as to how they actually perform.

i loved my falkens so tongue.gif
but yeah, tread life was a killer rolleyes.gif

im still deciding how i like my Kumho Ecsta 712's since i had no choice with those cause they came with the rims, as you know biggrin.gif

Nice tires! I was going to say that depending on your needs for all season traction, I also have the Kumho ASX's and they're a good inexpensive sports tire with good all season grip and treadwear rating.
I've been undecided on them in the past, but i believe its because my suspension is so stiff now that it makes them feel sort of loose due to the fat 205/55/15 size......so much sidewall to give in. I also chewed up the inside and outside edge from my suspension, but they've been on my car a long time also.

Manny, those Michelins look like a good tire with lots of all-season ability.


If I had to choose an all-out sport tire, however, I would choose either Falken Azenis or Toyo Proxes, I've had experiences with both and they're incredible tires.

agreed, but the treadlife on them is junk.
treadwear rating on the michelins is 400
