I just thought it might be nice to see what tires ya'll have used that you like. I went to rotate my tires the other day, and found that all my peeling out came to good use, and I had finally turned my rears into slicks.
What I wanted in a tire: be sticky, and be pretty (as in tread pattern). So, I figured I'd go with Michelins or Falkens (although I looked at some hankooks too). And since the Michelins were around $200 each, I looked at the azenis, however I heard that they aren't too swift in the wet. Soo, drumroll please: I got the Falken FK451s - they are ... well, either high performance summer or all-seasons, depending on the website.
Anyway, they were cheap ($100 for 225/45ZR17s), and real nice and sticky (not so easy to peel out anymore), but kinda loud as far as road noise goes. But, I'm real happy with them! Any other tire recommendations from ya'll out there?
