Excellent Starter tire ... but doesn't measure up to the newer tires. The Hankook R-S3 is getting some good reviews

Jason, I think we underestimated the tiredness of the tires. Here is how the fronts looked at the end of Sun. http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y145/M ... Ny5q-1.jpg" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; :shock:
My order is already placed. :lol:

Thank you again for taking the time to help me on Sun, I really appreciate it. :thumbup:

I just couldn't pass up the $45/ea price tag. :D There are some benefits to being on stock 16" wheels. :lol: Besides, with my limited experience, I probably wouldn't be able to optimally make use of really sticky tires anyway. :|

Those would make a great hipo street tire. Sizes on either side of what I need for the 335 or I'd be slapping some on the Bimmer.

Prices aren't really that much lower, but maybe they will go down soon. Also on closeout, Yokohama AD07's
