Default What tyres are u guys running?

The search thing doesnt seem to be working for me today, so Im sorry if this has been posted on recently. I've got my new 15" rotas on order and im just wondering what tyres you guys are using. Im just looking for a good balance between dry and wet grip, and price (much like everyone else i guess!). What do u recommend? I want to get them ordered as soon as poss as the rims will be showing up at the shop any day now, cant wait! I love these toys!

Yoko's are on my wishlist, they're on sale at the tire rack, and I can drive there and have them put on.

Toyo T1-R's mate, just got some the other day and did 400 miles in the rain on them to a show! Have to say they are a very good tyre, nice and sticky! Had the older T1-S's on until last week, they were just as good in the wet but these new ones are better in the dry, 25% better according to Toyo.

i have Kumho Ecsta Supra's. really good tires in all around weather. my old tires sucked ***** and squeeked alot but these grip real nice and takes a lot to have them squeel. i autoxed with them just last week for the first time and they held up reeeeal nice.[sm=smiley20.gif]

one the best all around performance tire would prolly be the General Tire Exclaim UHP. rated superior in almost all categories and pretty damn cheap too. but they only have them for 16" wheels i believe..

Kumho Ecsta SPT cheap, sticky, well behaved in wet and dry.

Yoko H4S on my stockers which are very good in dry/wet conditions and pretty good in snow. Now on my 17's i have Falken Zeix 512 which i have no problem with in dry or wet but i cant say anything about winter seeing as these will never touch snow. I payed 60-70 per tire.
