Tire Suggestions

Now that I finally figured out what wheels I want, I am wondering if anybody has any suggestions on what tires. I am looking for something under $225 a piece that is quiet, sticky, not too harsh on the ride and aggressive looking.

You would probably like the Hankook Ventus v12 evo from either Tire Rack or Discount Tire Direct. I have gotten many positive reviews from our customers and I use them on my own car and I drive very spiritedly. Very comfortable compared to the Falken Azenis RT-615s I used to run.

I think Nitto Invo would fit all of your criteria.

+1

I have them mounted on my wheels. Great grip in wet. Bought a set for 18-inch rims for $608, plus, I have a $60 rebate coming. Do the math and you will find these a real bargain in price, but competitive in performance.

Hankook V12 EVO or Conti Extreme DW would be the way to go.

Appreciate the feedback, gives me a few more choices now, since I have previously ran the Invo's and really liked them, but at the same time I like trying new things.

Just picked up some Bridgestone Potenza RE760 Sport to replace my RFT's. I love the tread pattern on these tires. They have excellent reviews, check them out.
