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 but yeah, tread life was a killer 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 -------------------- |

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. -------------------- 3rd gen ST205 3SGTE - Alive and boosting. |
