    Tire suggestions





    I just scooped these up the other day and I need some tires from them.

    what do you guys recommend.

    I am looking for 225/50/15 tires with good dry/wet traction with decent tread life and around 100$ each.

    what have you guys ran in this size, and any recomendations would be appreciated. Also best place to get them (tire rack, etc.?)

    thanks

    Bridgestone S0-3 PP (better than yoko's, over $100)
    Yoko ES100 (not quite the PP's, less than $100)

        Yeah, also a whole lot better than ES100s. Cheaper too!

                  are you kidding? ES100s are terrible at hydroplane resistance. my half worn out bridgestones are miles better than the ES100s were new.

                    anyone know a good, reliable, tire review website I can check out?

                    I need to pick up tires soon. My michelins are pretty worn, and not only that, horrible tires that loves to hydroplane :roll:

                    I was gonna go with Summer sport tires, but seeing as I live in a rainy city, and I need to drive in all kinds of weathers, I need to pick up some good all-weathers.

                      Well, there's always tirerack. I hear the Bridgestone Pole Position S-03s are gnarly in the wet and dry. I was going to buy those, but ran out of spendable money.

                      Oh, and whoever is defending ES100s and putting down Ziex', you're dumb. ES100s are scary when it rains.

                          I've ran my 318 with 2 sets of ES100's in 225/50/15...I've never had any issues with wet/standing water conditions.

                            maybe you've never had a better tire?
