Best tires for what ?


I would say one of the best, to have in about a month's time or so... ;)

Nokian Hakkapeliitta RSi winter tires (http://www.nokiantires.com/en/tire_hakkarsi.aspx?season=winter)

Nokian WR All-Weather Plus (http://www.nokiantires.com/en/tire_wr.aspx?season=winter) tires <- This one can also be used as a mild winter tire.

What do you want out of tire, strict dry performance, all season performance, snow performance, long wear, etc. Also, what is your budget?

[ramairgt19]

all season long wear and roughly spend 700 bucks see if i go to the states i can get for example b/f goodrich traction t/a for 520 bucks in canada they want to charge me 740 bucks

[Metallman56]

those Tripple Threads from Goodyear are very hard to beat. there the best tire i've ever had. and with a 80,000 mile warrenty, if you buy from Discount Tire, they might outlast your car.

[Devo]

Triple threads are expensive, for very little more get the F1 A/S

So far I have no complaints about them and got rain and snow in the same day with them

[atc3434]

Off topic, but nice ride Devo... we should race. Gotta rep the 86 Camaro's...
