    What tire to buy?

    I'm going to have a set of BBS RZ's in my possession by the middle of next week and I want to have the tires ready to go when they arrive.

    Wheels are 15x7

    Should I buy this tire?

    Or should I go with the g-force sports?

    I am on a budget so the sumitomos look very tempting for $66, but are they any good? Please chime in if you've had either of these tires. I had the g-force sports for about 1.5k miles so I never really got to completely test their longevity.

      ET20 RZs? If so 205 is your max, trust me on that.

      Excellent budget tires: Kumho SPT. Not as fun as the G-Force Sports (softer sidewall), but MUCH better in the wet, quieter, softer ride, last longer. and they're dirt cheap.

              I think he agrees.

                          He seems concerned with longevity, though.
