Yes, another thread on the shrinking tire selection, except different because the answers from two years ago are mostly obsolete.
Anyway, what tires do people recommend on E30 14" wheels (and I like the look of my basketweaves so I don't want to get bigger wheels at this point)? My tires were last replaced by the PO and have a 2008 stamp, and have some cracks. As I daily drive my E30 about every other month, I don't want them to fall apart while taking a nice corner. Searching for tires, people seem to recommend the Falken Zeix tires for our E30s, but those are discontinued.
I came across this Doral brand at $50 a pop, which is apparently a Sumitomo sub-brand, but I haven't found any E30 reviews of them (only one E21, which was positive). Anyone run these? Happy with them? I'm looking for all-seasons (winter in CT is mild) with good performance.
