- Thread starter black10th vert
- Start date
Also it is only driven in the summer
If I may ask, what size are you looking to run?
Stock size 275/40/17. Mainly use the car for weekend cruising. Tire life is really no concern since its only driven a 1000 miles a year.
Have you looked into something like Toyo R888?
Thanks,I'll check them out
Thank you for reaching out to us, black10th vert.
The R888 is a solid option and a popular choice among the members here. Just bear in mind, the R888 is a DOT approved competition tire that utilizes a stiff carcass and extra sticky rubber compound for increased performance under track conditions. If you want something more street friendly, the Nitto NT05 may be worth a look. This tire delivers predictable handling and is one of the better "Max" performance tires to hook up from a dig.
