I'm about to get my front tires changed because I had really really bad camber and the tires are pretty bad right now. What i was wondering was what are some pretty good tires for a decent price. I have BF Goodrich Euro T/A's 195/50/R15 on my rims right now(btw I have civic SI rims). And what I heard was they were discontinued so im not going to get them again. So does anyone know any good tires that I can get for my SI rims? Also, will it look bad if I only get 2 tires since I'm going to have two different brand name tires? As long as they are the same 195/50/R15 it should be cool right?

Thanks!

 

kumho tires..
theyre pretty cheap n do a good job..

 

get another BF goodrich, it might help.
as long as you re not using your car for race,or autox, having two different brand of tires is ok....

 

You could also get a wider set, say 20/50/15's for your Si stockers. Brand is up to you... Just to broaden your choices there...

 

If you're car has ABS, you should stick to the same rolling diameter as stock, and all four tires should be the same size.

 

I agree. Go with all four tires cause handling will suffer. Putting the new tires up front will make your car oversteer, putting the new tires out back will make the car understeer.

A good tire for daily driving is Kumho 712s.

 

Most people 'round here favor the Toyo's (if you can find them). I drove an ES300 with Toyo Proxies, and they felt pretty good. I got a set of FZ4's for my new wheels. The T1S's are the best, but very pricey, Kumho's are decent and cheap, but seem kind of chunky IMO. My friends have them on their Jetta & M3. I've had bad experiences with Yokohama AVID H4's, they were a pretty good for their money, just that their sidewalls seemed to be very weak, guess partly due to NYC potholes, but 2 of my tires simply busted at the sidewall.

 

i have the toyo T1-S on my Si wheels and i love them handling is good and the noise isnt bad at all the size is 205/50/15 though toyo does make a 215/45/15 which was on a two month backorder when i ordered my tires 110$ a piece, not cheap.

 

These are my choices for tires...all are 195/50/15

Falken Ziex ZE-512
Dunlop SP Sport FM901
Dunlop Qualifier TR
Nitto NT 450 Extreme Performance
Yokohama AVS ES100
Yokohama AVID T4
Dunlop Sport 8000
Dunlop SP Sport 5000

Anybody have any suggestion on which ones i should get. I just want some decent tires that will last a while. I dont do any auto-x or anything like that. I just want some tires that stick good and are good in rain and so forth. Some daily driving tires basically.

**Also has anyone heard anything bad about the bf goodrich Euro T/A's?? I found a site that still sells them but i heard someone say that they werent good at all in the rain or wet weather? Because if they are decent i might at well go with those..

 

I wouldn't touch anything from Nitto except the drag tire.
The Ziex I've seen and they're not that great.
The AVS ES100 are an Ultra High Performance tire on TireRack and 280 tread wear.
The T4s are all season and 480 tread wear.
The Sport 8000 are ultra high performance and 200 tread wear.
The Sport 5000 are ultra high performance all season and 340 tread wear.

Do you want a tire that is all season? Some of these tires will not work in the snow/sleet.

The tire I would recommend out of your list are the AVS ES100 or the Sport 8000. There are some other tires which are better for spring, summer, fall. And then there are others which are great all seasons.

The BFG Euro TA are crap. I had them on my 1993 Civic Ex.
