Suspension, Brakes, Tires & Wheels - Yokohama T4

right now I've got Yokohama T4 on stock rims. They're a nice tire with excellent dry traction and very good wet traction. </P>


The only bad thing about these tires is they are a bit noisy on the highway.</P>

the price of performance</P>

i think i decided on gettin some si rims and going with bfg g-forces

Since I will only be using the Civic as a daily driven car (no racing), how much should I spend for each tire that offers great traction in dry/wet conditions &amp; is also rated very well. I'm looking to spend anywhere btw $300-350. The wheels will be placed onto a set of 16x7 Konig Quicksilver wheels.</P>

I would definitely recommend the Yokohama T4 for great dry and wet traction. Also, check out the new Yokohama H4s/V4s.

nice konigs nice tires are yokohamas, pirelli's, or nittos

Maybe the best choice for me is theKumho EcstasASX Ultra high performance tires. They got very good customer ratings and are only $80 each. The size of the tire for the Civic will be 205/45WR16. Is this a good tire company to buy from?</P>

** Maybe the Konig's I posted earlier doesn't fit the Civic Coupe. Coz when I look for a tire that fits it, no matches shows up <IMG src=smileys/smiley19.gif border="0"></P><edited><editID>Roentgen</editID><editDate>38101.9778125</editDate></edited>

tirerack and tires.com are both pretty reputable. they have a wide variety to chose from and are priced pretty nice. they both carry the big 3 michelin,bfg, goodyear. and the others brands are kinda split between the 2. like tirerack doesnot have nittos i dont think but who knows. either way you will find a good deal.</P>

At Discount Tire Direct, I found some Nitto NT NeoGen VR for $86 each. The tires looks really nice and since the Konig I wanted is out of question, I thought of getting these Fondmetal Tech 5 wheels instead. So its either btw the Nitto or Kumho now as my choice for 16" tires. Here are thewheels I'm thinking abt getting - $131 each: </P>

** Using Discount Tire Direct feature of seeing your car with specific wheels, the Tech 5 actually looks really nice. <IMG src=smileys/smiley1.gif border="0"></P><edited><editID>Roentgen</editID><editDate>38101.9934259259</editDate></edited>
