alot of people on here seem to like the dunlop direzza star specs, but only bad about them is from what i have heard you are either gripping or sliding, not much warning before you start to slide, i like the potenzas but thats just me

My last set of tires were Bridgestone Potenzas and I loved them. Right now I'm running some Nitto Neogens and they got really good reviews, but I personally don't like them. Don't have nearly as much grip in the corners, and I seem to slip all over the place in the rain. Kind of nervous to how they'll be in the snow, so far for an all-season they suck.
For a budget tire Fuzions seem to be pretty good for the price, I had a set on my WRX's extra wheels and they were great. -------------------- 1999 Celica GT

Hankook V12 Ventus Evo good balance between price and grip, if money is no object i hear Pirelli are still the best around
