    tire recomendations

    I have stock wheels with 195 60 15 tires. I need new ones because the guy I bought the car from never aligned it. I aligned it the other day and it was way off. Its all good now though. So I need new tires any recomendations? I'm gonna be running an f2 suspension with a probable 2.0-2.5 drop (with a camber kit ofcourse ) its going to be my daily driver and I'm not really going to the track or anything. I do hit some turns pretty sharp sometimes though. I'm looking for a tire that won't cost more than 75 bucks a tire. I get a discount at a tire shop and they can get any tire so id probably be getting like 10-12 bucks off per tire

          I've been looking at the Dunlop Direzza dz101 in 205/50 myself. Solid reviews, great wear/performance at a very affordable price.

            No I won't be tucking. And I think 195 60 15 is the size I want I just want to know what tire model would be good

                so brand names? Get on tirerack.com, they have lots of reviews and ratings, it will give you an idea of where to start. Once you've narrowed the list...come on here and ask what we think of specific brands.

                also keep in mind...what you are doing with your car will change what tires would be better. and what the road conditions tend to be in your area as well.

                falkens are ok regular tires...you won't hate them...but they aren't the stickiest either.

                  Excellent choice. I loved my 912's.

                  By far my favorite inexpensive tire. Grips very well, in dry and wet conditions.

                    Even though ur looking for brand I would still recommend switching the tire size also to the 205-50-15, they're gonna give u more stability and there also gonna look great with that drop...of course that my opinion...and regarding the brand Falken is a great tire but there other options maybe a little better for the same price range...

                      I run Perreli P6 Z rated in a 215/50/17 250 bucks a tire though, remember with rubber you get what you pay for, compare the souls of a pare of nikes tennis shoes to that of a pare from payless. see which last longer.

                          Whatever you do, do not run a 65 sidewall. I had some on the back of my wagon and I was fighting that bastard all the way to AFM trying to keep it on the road. It fish tailed like nobody's business.

                            I fell in love with the Falken Ziex's. Awesome tires. Corner like a dream and have terrific traction. Not sure how much you can get them for over there, but they aren't that expensive really for what you get.

                            http://www.1010tires.com/tire.asp?ti...=Ziex+ZE%2D912

                            Tires are funny cause when you find one you like, you don't really wanna try another one for fear of getting a worse product. Nice to have forums where members can experiment and post back about their experience.

                            I gotta say, I rate the Ziex pretty damn high

                              I second the Ziex's I've had several set's of those and they have always been a good value.

                              Just my opinion but if your going to lower it I would go with 50 series tires
